Taylor of Old Bond Street Pre-shave Oil, 1.06-Ounce, 30ml preshave

The oil is excellent, especially when it comes to covering sensitive and troublesome shaving areas. The razor glides over any trouble spots making each shave a pleasure. The scent is excellent and does not take much to get good coverage on the face, and makes shaving a piece of cake. I am rarely one who ever nicks myself shaving anyway but I sound this especially helpful when doing my second pass going lightly against the grain for that extra smoothness. My skin does not get irritated in the slightest nor does it break out. I will not shave ever again without this product.

I have been religious using Old Taylor shaving cream for the last several years and thought I would give this a try. The oil is very thick and sticks to your beard well. The thing that I notice is as your blade gets a little duller there is less pull on your face when using this . Seems like I get a few more shaves out of each blade. I do have one nit to pick. I shave in the shower, as do many guys. This is in a really smooth’ glass bottle with a smooth black screw on lid. When you hands are wet and soapy in the shower my fear is because of how smooth it is and how slippery my hands are- there might be a time that I could drop this on the tile of my shower and have broken glass to walk on. I am nearsighted as well and between steam, water running, white tile and clear glass it could be a challenge. A plastic squeeze bottle with a flip lid would solve the problem. Not as elegant perhaps, but certainly safer.

This is an excellent product for shaving. My husband shaves his head as well as his face, and this pre-shave oil provides a smooth and moist surface for the razor, which reduces greatly the incidence of nicks and cuts. It also leaves behind a pleasant scent of sandalwood which is decidedly masculine and appealing. Also recommend the after-shave balm from the same company.The only negative comment my husband has is that it can gum up the razor a bit if not properly rinsed with hot water.

I ended up not liking this oil. Scent is ok, but it's "heavy". It's difficult to rub into your skin. Afterwards it causes the razor to drag. The "Taconic Shave Premium Natural Pre-Shave Oil (2 oz.) – Unscented" is much nicer.

If your like me and got in to DE shaving i want to try all the different stuff that comes along with it. I do face and head in the shower and while it lasted i used this on my head. It made the pass nice and smooth like its supposed to. I dont have sensitive skin so I dont really need it for a good close shave with minimal irritation. Loved the smell though.

Great quality pre-shave oil. I used less than a dime sized amount every time I shaved. It has a thick but viscous consistency that helps to lift the hairs while protecting the skin. Despite the tacky feeling on your fingers after application, it washes off cleanly and easily.But, like all the other pre-shave oils, is incredibly overpriced for what you are buying. You likely have a gallon of most of the ingredients in your kitchen for a third of the price for this 2 oz bottle. I will be mixing my own and reusing this sturdy bottle in the future.

First, the box I received this bottle in states it has a sandalwood scent but I did not see that on Amazon's page. Other than that I read the other 4 reviews on here before I tried this item out and I am glad I gave it a shot. The oil is indeed thick, as it should be, but after putting a few drops in the palm of your and & rubbing your hands together vigorously the oil goes on exceedingly well. I did try leaving the oil on before applying my lather but after a couple tries I have found that removing the top layer of oil with warm water does allow for a cleaner shave as my safety razor does not deal with the thickness of the oil very well. Removing the excess still left my skin moisturized and protected as long as you have your lather ready to go right after you rinse the excess off.I have no complaints with the price for such a product & it is a welcome addition to my morning routine. I am now thinking about replacing my current aftershave gel with ToOBS's sandalwood offering.

So most pre shave oils I’ve used are like using an oil. This “oil” is super thick and gels to almost anything it touches. I required multiple handwashings with hot water and soap to get it off my hands. That said, when combined with my shaving soap, Proraso Green, it gave the smoothest shave I think I’ve ever had. I think next time I’ll wear some nitrile gloves to apply it.

Ottimo pre barba

I usaly buy the other Taylor bond street sandalwood but decide to try this one for a change. It has a nice smell and provides a comfortable close shave

tiene un agradable olor, llego rápido y bien empaquetado, el único pero que le pondría es su costo tan elevado, para tan poco producto, pero aun a si como solo ocupo entre 6 y 8 gotas, tengo producto para medio año o incluso mas

Je suis fan absolu de la marqueTOBS. Je possède beaucoup de produits de rasage de la marque ou d’accessoires.J’ai voulu testé ce produit que l’on trouve assez rarement chez les spécialistes du rasage à l ancienne en France.Ici après plusieurs tests je suis mitigé dans le sens ou le produit faire bien son travail mais son positionnement me semble assez flou ...Qu’entend-t-on ici par « aromathérapie » ???J’avoue ne pas bien comprendre car si sa senteur n’est pas désagréable, ici elle est a la fois très (trop?) légère et ... curieuse: ni désagréable , ni envoûtante ...Je ne recommanderai pas mais cela me permettra d’avoir une alternative supplémentaire le matin.

Husbands Review: I use an aggressive razor and this shaving oil was a life changer! It has a medium consistency and is scented. I was unsure about the scent at first but after rinsing it is so mild that it is unnoticeable... razor burn and neck rash are now a thing of the past, I would buy again.
