Review: ... Bond Street Sandalwood - This is just plain the Finest Shave Cream on the planet - Taylor of Old Bond Street Sandalwood - This is just plain the Finest Shave Cream on the planet !! I have to say the scent of the Sandalwood version here is just incredible as other people have said. Below is a fairly lengthy explanation of the use and application of this Excellent product. I hope that other guys who have never experienced this product and its application and use will read through my explanation below and experience for yourself one of life's very fine pleasures! This product coupled with Musgo Real Lime Glycerin Oil Soap simply provides the finest shave possible. First of all it really is best to acquire for yourself a Badger Hair brush for use in creating a lather from the Taylor Old Bond St. product. You can experience the Product without a brush; Yes a good quality brush can be costly, but they last a long time and you really cannot appreciate the full effect the Brush provides in both creating the Lather as well as the application onto your face of the lather. We all spend a lot of money on things, just break down and do yourself a favor and get a brush. Don't feel too distressed by spending $50.00 for one, It's well worth it and the benefit of using a brush is pretty much invaluable through its ability to create a wonderful lather of the cream. It just cannot be effectively created and experienced in any other way. Here is the process to follow in the use of Old Bond Street & Musgo: Run a good quantity of HOT water into your sink and place your Badger Brush into the Hot Water, this will Heat up the bristles of the Brush, Next Acquire a wash cloth and place it in a sink of HOT water, wring it out somewhat and then warm your face with it for approx.1 minute, place the wash cloth back into the HOT water a couple times as needed. The purpose here is to soften whiskers and warm the skin., Next lather up a small amount of the Musgo Oil soap with HOT water a spread around your face with your hands, this will pre-lubricate the skin and whiskers and provides the basis for a very smooth, gliding surface for the razor. Next retrieve the Badger brush from the hot water in the sink and shake out most, but not all of the Hot Water, then dip it into the TAYLOR of Old Bond St. and get a small quantity onto the Badger Brush. Next lather it up in a small bowl or cup, (you don't need to go out and spend much money on a cup or bowl) it will take about 30 sec. to 1 min to create a nice lather, and it will likely be necessary to add a little water to the bowl as you "fluff" up the lather. The point is to create a somewhat fluffy lather. If you use too much water, the lather will be runny and will pretty much just run off of your face when you place it onto your face, on the other hand not enough water and the product will not lather up much in the bowl, so there is a bit of a fine line here. When you are finished, shaving, I like to apply a small amount of water across my face and then reapply the remaining lather from the brush to my face and then shave once again in a different direction or pattern. Whiskers tend to grow in a certain direction on your face, and everyone's face is different so shave a second time in a different pattern or direction. Finally, rinse your face with Warm Water, and pat it dry with a towl, don't vigorously wipe your face with towel. You want to keep your face moist as you next apply an aftershave or lotion. May I here recommend one of my favorite aftershave cream which is NEUTROGENA RAZOR DEFENSE. This product will not sting or burn your face, it also moisturizes the face, and is so silky smooth. NEUTROGENA Razor Defense is simply the best. Give it a try!! Here is my summation of everything above. The process of creating a lather with the brush takes some practice, but stay with it and by and by you will get the hang of it. Once you familiarize yourself with the process of everything described above, it all becomes fairly easy and does not take as much time as in the beginning if you are new to this. Use of the products noted and the effort of skin preparation and application of the lather simply produces the finest shave you will ever experience!! There simply is nothing better!! Canned Shave cream does not even come close to this. People who have not tried this or experienced a shave as described are simply missing out on one of life's GREAT Pleasures. Your skin will feel so wonderful when you finish. Lastly I have to say the scent of the Sandalwood version of Taylor here is just incredible as other people have said. You will experience the masculine scent of this superb Product and feel invigorated and ready to Tackle the World in the day ahead of you. Shaving becomes a pleasurable experience you will look forward to and not a drudgery. Don't deny yourself one of life's simple pleasures any longer. ENJOY !!
Review: Wake up and smell the almonds - Okay, so I was using Proraso for a while, which is fine, but I just grabbed this Taylor of Old Bond Street stuff, and holy cow, it’s in a different league entirely. The quality jump is just massive—like light years away. It's about twice the price upfront, yeah, but totally worth it. A tiny tap of my brush on the soap is all I need. Seriously, a little goes an extremely long way. I can actually see this one jar lasting me years, making it way more cost-effective than those wasteful canned gels. The lather is incredible. You get this dense, microfoam that spreads on super easy. It feels instantly moisturizing—none of that dry, tight feeling you get with cheaper stuff after a minute. My razor just glides right over it like silk. And the scent? The sweet almond smell is the perfect wake-up call in the morning. Honestly, no comparison. This is a must-buy for anyone who cares about a good shave. Love it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: It says "shaving cream bowl"...is it a "bar" of soap that comes in a bowl or do you need a separate bowl?**
A: This style of shaving is often called, "soap and a brush." With the hard soap bar (actually a round "bar"), you would swirl a wet brush over/across the hard soap to work up some soap into the bristles. Then swirl that over/across your face to work up and cover with a nice thick lather. This product is shaving *cream,* so much softer. With shaving cream you have 3 choices: 1. Use just as you would with hard soap, but use much less as little goes a long way! 2. Dab some into a separate bowl, add just a little hot H2O, work into a lather IN the bowl and then apply. 3. Dab a little into your moistened fingers, work it into a lather and apply with the brush.  Bowl is more traditional, but with a dripping wet brush and a good lathering on the face you can skip the bowl if desired.

**Q: what are the advantages  of a brush applied soap over aresol cream or gel.**
A: The main advantage of a shave soap over a gel is moisturizing. A shave soap moisturizes your beard hairs making them swell and easier to cut, with less irritation. Gels don't do that, which makes for a more irritating shave. Do this in the shower for extra moisture and heat. Shave soap usually lasts longer as you only need a little to make a lot of lather which is cost effective. When you use a brush to apply the soap you do it vigorously to wake up your beard hairs to make them stand up better, which equates to a closer shave. All-in-all a shave soap will deliver a superior close shave with little irritation.

**Q: what's the difference between shaving cream and shaving soap?**
A: Good quality shaving soap’s will always yield a superior lather and consistency… however these are mostly artisan soaps and require much more technique and also in the amount of water-soap ratio. Basically, it’s easy to get consistent with a cream if you use your finger and eyeball the same amount each time. You then get an idea of how much water to use after a few shaves. Using roughly the same amount of cream and then get the lather dialed in ti the consistency you like. Soaps can be easy to overload or… VERY difficult to load the brush at all, especially if it’s a hard puck of a triple milled soap like (Arlington scent is my favorite so far) DR HARRIS. It comes down to preferences and TOBS Sandalwood was my first “real” quality shaving cream and while I was initially put off by the scent at first, it being a strong and almost a too traditional scent even for English soaps. It’s my comfort scent if I had to pick just one. It used to give me a red burning rash if I used it to often but I don’t shave everyday now so I’m fine with it. After many years of DE shaving I still love my American artisanal soaps and they have probably the best soap base and lather protection you can get. However, I love the traditional English scents the best… firmly a man of the three-T’s as they call it. With a tie really for 1st place as I really love DR HARRIS scents and quality soap but the nod would go to TOBS because that sandalwood just grows on you so I must buy another tub!!! Btw, I have WAY too many shaving creams and soaps but I’m not willing to pay the premium for better soap bases that really don’t affect my shaving results provided I’m using the right blade/razor combo. Feather AS-D2 with a Feather blade and I’m set. Sorry for the rant… but you mine as well enjoy the shave since you gotta do it anyway.

**Q: Can i use this pan in the oven?**
A: No because it isn't a pan and it's a shaving cream in a plastic tub.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Cream for a luxury shaving experience-- at a reasonable price
*by S***K on November 5, 2025*

Had been using Art of Shaving cream and it was good but expensive for the portion and felt like something was lacking in the scent dept.. Bought the Taylor Sandalwood after seeing on @ohioshaves youtube video--oh man this is excellent! super lather but you only need a little--if you dip the brush directly you may pick up way more than you need--i use a spoon and control the amount that way and put the cream into my shaving bowl, then lather it up with a wet shaving brush and it comes out a rich and luxuriously smooth lather--you may need to work it in to your beard for a few minutes but it really helps with sensitive skin. and smells better than most.
