Taylor of Old Bond Street Peppermint Shave Cream (5.3 oz)

IMO Taylor of Old Bond Street makes some of the best shave cream products on the market. The Peppermint scent is one of my favorites, but I have tried many of them and there are few I would not re-order.

This product is excellent. The peppermint fragrance is energizing and soothing at the same time.

Exactly why I ordered this shaving cream. The peppermint smell is absolutely amazing. I have been using The Art of Shaving shaving cream for several years and thought I would give Taylor of Old Bond Street a try. I had read a previous comment that stated the peppermint shaving cream was a bit more heavy. That comment is spot on. It takes a bit more water to get a good foaming going. As for a comparison between AOS and TOBS. The ingredients are almost identical. I do believe that the AOS is smoother and goes on my face with a brush better than the TOBS. However, I take into account the comment from a previous person mentioned above. With that said, it really boils down to cost. And I have to say I am tired of paying AOS prices. And again, the peppermint scent is a big, big win! I would very much like to try other scents by TOBS but I don’t think it could get any better than the peppermint. So, I am officially changing from AOS to TOBS.

I love the peppermint and I love the fresh feeling after you rinse off. Lathers up great by far the best lather I’ve used at the barbershop.

Having recently got into traditional shaving (single blade razor, soap brush, alum bar, etc) this shaving cream is working really well for me. Definitely love the peppermint aroma and the way it makes my face feel. Its pricey as shaving cream goes but its worth it. It doesnt take very much on the brush/hand to get a rich lather going. Honestly I was a little skeptical of the old-school shaving stuff but it really had made a huge difference in the way my beard grows and the overall feeling of my face post-shaving.

I have used this for about 2 years now, and its hands down the best I have tried. The scent is both rich and not overpowering (though the peppermint may make your eyes water if you use too much, learned that quick!), with a very smooth feel before and after the shave. If recommend its use for safety razor and modern razor usage. A soft badger hair brush is recommended, as it didnt seem to lather as easily with my boar bristle brush. Overall its my favorite, and a great treat to start your day off right.

LOVE THE SMELL AND FEEL

I have several TOBS soaps and they all perform well, but the Peppermint is by far my absolute favorite. The cooling effect of the soap on the skin is like having a good level of menthol without being over the top, which is truly a plus in my book. The scent is clean and pure Peppermint, you know its there as soon as you open it. After a great shave you are left with a cool moist skin feel. You can pair this scent with many of your favorite aftershaves without any problem.......It Is a Keeper.

Smell is the strong and lathers great. I wouldnt recommend as a daily use cuz its pretty minty, unless thats your thing. I bought this for hubs for fathers day & used it myself to shave my legs. So tingly and love how it lathered! My legs were friggin smooooth! Yes, ladies can use this too!!

This is the 5th TOBS that I have tried. The smell is very minty and leaves a nice tingle on my face. Perfect for those that shave in the morning, it helps open my eyes in the shower. The cream lathers quick and a little bit of product goes a long way. I have been pairing the cream with a feather as-d2 razor. I would use this cream again, although I am sure I will try another scent before I finish this one.
