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

This is the first shave cream that I have bought. I have subsisted on shave SOAPS until now. However, I am thoroughly pleased with the results of this cream. It has a wonderfully peppermint-y scent that does not cross over into smelling medicine-y like some other soaps or creams. It also does a great job of moisturizing and protecting my face while proving a smooth shave surface for my DE razor. Just a little bit (an amount about the size of my pinky nail) works for a whole shave, so this tub will last months! One side effect, that I dont mind at all, is the cool sensation that it puts on your face. Almost like a menthol feel. I think it feels great, but wanted to make sure that other knew ahead of time. PROS: Great product with a great scent! CONS: Some might not like the cooling menthol feel. Final Say: Definitely no hesitation in recommending this product to any wet shaver.

LOVE this..Have been using much more expensive products and tried this one...the peppermint wakes up your skin and senses. Only need to us a LITTLE on your brush and it lathers up well. The best shave cream I have used and I normally only use those from top department stores! a Wonderful product!

Just a small amount of this cream on a brush, mixed with a little warm water, and mixed in a shaving bowl creates a rich, foamy cream that applies easily and smoothly to the face. The shave is excellent and the peppermint smell is therapeutic both to smell and creating a refreshing feel post-shave. No filmy residue is left behind. I have purchased several of this companies products and I keep coming back. Great product whether youre using a standard multiblade razor, or going old-fashioned with a safety or straight razor.

Theres a cool breeze in town. This shaving cream is so cool and soothing and smells like Christmas. Some people worry about smelling like a candy cane but to them I say this is shaving cream, not cologne. Unless you drab it on like a psychopath you will shortly smell like normal human male. I have now tried almost all of Taylor of Old Bond Street shaving creams and the peppermint is my favorite by far. IT is super thick and a little bit can get a thick lather for three shaves easily. The scent is amazing and the cool soothing sensation almost makes shaving a delight (almost). For the record, I do like some othe rTaylor of Old Bond products too, including: St Jermyn Almond Mr. Taylor Rose Coconut But this is by far the best. Take the risk, go with peppermint.

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.

This review is for the peppermint. The cream has a nice smell, and feels great on the skin. I use this cream by scooping a small amount with one or two fingers into a bowl and then work it into a lather with a brush. I then allow the cream to sit on my skin for 2 minutes to soften the hair and skin and it results in a perfect shave. This stuff leaves my skin feeling nice and the peppermint adds a nice cooling sensation during and afterwards.

Cream lathers very quickly and soothes against razor burns!

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.

Strong, pleasing scent that fades in a very rich foam. The product lathers quickly and is thick, sticking around plenty long enough to complete your shave. Ive been using Castle Forbes and find this product to be on par for less money.

Just great
