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

If you like the cool tingling from menthol/mint shave cream, this is the one for you. The first time using this shaving cream was new and surprising! Intense!

Exceptional product. After using Art of Shaving for several years I became annoyed with the lack of inventory and repeated “out of stock” messages. I researched and found this. First, it is a thicker, more solid product. I like this, it keeps me from overusing. A little water on the brush and it’s perfect. It doesn’t take much. Has a great smell and while I can’t say it tingles when used, I do use a pre shave oil. After the shave I do feel the effect of the peppermint. I also sense it when used on areas of my face that have no pre shave oil. Great product. Don’t be confused by the reviews that talk about how hard or solid the product is.

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.

I love peppermint washes and creams and this shave cream surely does not fall short in letting you know you are in fact shaving with a peppermint cream through scent and sensation. It has the warming sensation that typically accompanies peppermint, a nice little morning wake me up in addition your coffee. It also coats and lathers extremely well especially compared to Proraso creams. You only need to dab just the tiniest amount on your brush to get it going after wetting the brush. It is not however as gentle and nourishing as Proraso creams as it does leave one of those slightly sticky films on your skin that will linger unless you treat with a moisturizing cream thereafter. Overall, a great shave soap/cream option to add to your wet shaving repertoire.

Smells great perfect lather...

Rich lather, creamy feel and very soothing.

Tobh is great. This is my favorite shave cream so far. It does not have that menthol cooling effect, but it does have a great tingly fresh clean feeling to it. Ill rebuy this one next time. It lasts forever. I wont go into how great Tobh shave creams are. Others have summed it up a million times over. best shave cream ive ever used.

I am a HUGE fan of Taylor of Old Bond Street. My go-to is usually the Eton College shave cream, but I am also what some might crudely call a menthol slut. Well, Clubmans Osage Rub is my guilty pleasure, so I thought a nice peppermint oil laden shaving cream by TOBS would be a great addition to my gourmet shaving kit. Boy was I right! Now, this cream wont burn your face or anything, but as you brush the lather on your face, you can instantly feel the cooling sensation. Its wonderful. You cant feel any fresher than this while shaving...or can you? Rinse off when youre done, then slap on some Osage Rub and REALLY make your eyes water! This shave cream gloriously intensifies the effect of that aftershave, which is my #1 favorite thing about it!

I bought the peppermint variety of TofOBS shave cream. The reviews made it sound as if the old way of doing business is far better than the canned shave cream. I am not seeing it. Ill give them the post shave cooling effect was good. But other than that, the can is far better. Using shave creams adds 5 steps to the ritual. And creates a much bigger clean up effort. I will finish off this tub then return to canned shave cream. Write it off as a bad idea listening to a group of over zealots. Maybe I can use the bowl for small breakfasts. And Ill use the brush to dust off my defunct manual toothbrushes. Good luck with yr decision.

This shaving cream lathers incredibly well when used with a brush, and it doesnt take much to get a full lather twice (I lather once to shave with the grain and then lather again to go against the grain). I will definitely be buying more of this peppermint cream once it runs out, which wont be for a while since it doesnt take much! Great product.
