St James of London Cedarwood & Clarysage Shave Cream Jar, 5.07oz

Excellent shaving cream.

This shaving cream smells great and lathers up great as well. The only downside is that the texture is on the hard side. Fresh shaving cream is light and airy but this is not. I have had this happen before through Amazon when selecting less popular brand or scent.

I am 45 and Ive been shaving since I was a teen, but when my hair started falling out in my early twenties I began shaving my head too. This cream provides nice thick lather on a badger hair brush that flows smoothly onto my face and head providing excellent glide and protection for my face while using my Merkur safety razor. The consistency of the cream isnt runny with proper water use, and about 3/4s a teaspoon goes a long way. The smell of the cedar in the cream is wonderful, but the other scents within the creams makeup provide a crisp clean scent and feeling that lasts throughout the day. Taylor of the Old Bond has some great products, but St. James is definitely a step up to being nearly in the same category of shaving creams by Castle Forbes and Truefitt & Hill without their prices. Great product.

I love it! The scent of cedarwood and sage is pleasant and it works up into a lather quite easily. Ive used dozens of shaving creams over the years and this is definitely my favorite right now. Highly recommended over AOS, Taylor of Old Bond, etc.

My husband loves these products. A very little goes a long way. We have bought every scent and now are also buying the matching colognes.

very slick, lots more soap in the jar than you would expect, smells sweet and slightly spicy, a little perfumey, high class. stayed moist, didnt give razor burn, skin is still soft, my other soaps didnt do that. i didnt use the gel or aftershave, yet the scent has remained, lightly spicy all night. i shaved using a thirtys model Gillette open combed razor with dorco blade. open combs keep some of the shaving cream on your face making second passes more smooth. this shaving soap was worth the money.

I am a female and in loe with this shaving cream. It moisturizes my skin and has a grat scent that isnt at all too masculine . On the contrary my husband gave me this one day after he realized it was ccausing him to brak out aftr shaving ( he has sensitie skin I do not )

I have tried Taylor of Old Bond Street, Cremo, this product, and various commodity shaving creams at the big box retail stores. In my opinion, this product is tied with the Cremo brand for best shaving performance. Fragrance intensity is subtle, tied with Cremo, less than TOBS. I really like the scent of this product, but not everyone is a fan of all things cedar (their loss). I really like the solid feel of the heavyweight glass jar. Probably not the lightest thing to take when traveling, though.

Ive tried a bunch of products, for me, this is the one.. Awesome smell, spicy, woody, not overbearing, and its a modern scent, not your grandpas shaving scent like Proraso... The cream goes on really thick and smooth (dont need much of it), lather is superior, no irritation, washes off very clean and easily. Comes in a great looking glass jar.

One cannot go wrong with this brand, my only complaint is that the scent is very mild, barely noticeable.
