Thread: Sandalwood Shaving Cream- Taylor of Old Bond vs. Art of Shaving

I have never tried TOBS but had a tub of AOS. I do like AOS' take on Sandalwood too. As far as lathering, I really never had any serious issues. The only thing I can think of is the cream has expired. I had a tub of Caswell Massey cream which I could not get to lather well. I am beginning to suspect the tub had gotten funky. But I am just guessing though.

I suppose that's possible. I had gotten the AOS cream from a kit at their store but cant say how long it may or may not have sat on the shelf. I may try the AOS cream again in the future to see if I have better luck...thanks.
