Hey all,
I've recently purchased my shaving cream in a bowl (150 gr.) from the world known, famous maker "Taylor of Old Bond street" - "Cedarwood" and writing to share my experience and opinion about the mentioned product.
- First of all the package and/or the bowl is very nicely made and performed in an ivory color plastic box. Very nice to grab and hold, it is wide-open which is good when placing shaving brush inside and lathering if you need. This is a plus!
- Second is my general impression about the consistency and performance of the cream. Rate it as moderate. This a very soft, shaving cream just like the one you squeeze out from the tube of shaving cream, which is easy to lather straight on the face BUT there is no NO FOAM BUILD UP AT ALL This is a big fat minus AND SLICKNESS very moderate - another FAT minus!
With a good shaving technique and experience high risk of nicks/cuts is likely possible. Very unsatisfied with this issue!
- Post shave feel in general is good, but I still have a feeling that something is missing, like when you expect more but you get less. I consider This is a minus as well!
Lastly, the aroma(scent) is very mild, smells with notes of citruses, grapefruit...
I prefer stronger scents considering that it is winter now and felt no cedar wood at all.
Conclusion: Before that product, I used Razorock (Dead Sea) and WSP Formula T (Gaelic Tweed) and I am very dissatisfied with TOBS and opportunities it gives at similar price.
TOBS CEDARWOOD NOT RECOMMENDED! STAY AWAY
