Taylor of OLD Bond Street - Shaving Shop
Spring is in the air and the birds are singing. I reached for one of my favorites for today’s shave, Taylor of OLD Bond Street in the fragrance of Shaving Shop. The Taylor shave cream lathers up richly with the super badger brush that I was using. I also noticed the light sophisticated fragrance and a slight tingle in my skin from the aromatics in the shave cream. I always enjoy the rich imagery that the purveyors of men’s product use. From the web site of Taylor of OLD Bond Street:
“Revitalising fresh Citrus traces blend vigorously with the sophistication and ruggedness of precious Cedar and Oak woods. Add virile undertones of musks over a floor of Sage, Rosemary and Petitgrain for an alluring composition that stimulates the senses and excites the emotions. A true Gentleman’s discreetly fragranced cologne. Passed down from generation to generation in the Taylor tradition.”
With that said, or so quaintly painted in our minds, the shave went on. The shave was clean and efficient as the shave cream not only produced that wonderful fragrance, but was slick and allowed the razor to slide efficiently across my skin. After cooling off my face I applied a liberal dousing of after shave in the Shaving Shop fragrance. With the ruggedness of precious Cedar and Oak woods, the virile undertones of musks over the floor of Sage, Rosemary and Petitgrain, I venture out for a hike up Mt Rubidoux as a fine gentleman.
