Item Description
I'm a big fan of the Taylor's creams, and an even bigger fan of the Avocado (the new scent). For me, there are few shaving products that are finer.
Price - Unlike the other English creams (the 2 remaining T's specifically), Taylor's is a bargain.
Scent - I almost didn't purchase this cream because I had read several reviews where people spoke of their strong distaste for the scent. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that I absolutely love the smell of this cream. It is a very fresh, natural, clean smell. While the name of the cream would indicate an avocado-like smell, this is not the case. The name is derived from the inclusion of avocado oil.
Latherability - This lather from this cream is superb. It explodes off of the brush, allowing a small amount of cream to make enough lather for many passes.
Moisturizing Properties - One of this cream's "claims to fame" is its fantastic moisturizing property. A major reason for the purchase of this cream was to battle the dry skin that accompanies the winter months, and it certainly lived up to all of the hype. I would imagine that, if used in the summer, an aftershave balm would not be necessary when using this product.
Packaging - There is nothing regal or special about the packaging. It is a PVC tub, no more and no less. At first I was a little disappointed with this presentation, however, I imagine that this is one of the compromises for keeping the price low.
Quality / Efficacy - As far as I am concerned, Taylor's Avocado is everything that a shaving cream should be. It smells great, lathers great, lubricates great, moisturizes great, and is sold for a great price. I guess this would make it a great, great, great, great, great product!
