I am a total convert to Taylor's shaving creams. This one provides you with outstanding lather that smells of authentic lavender and gives a great slick shave. You only need a tiny bit of product to create a mass of lather so it should last a long time.
Only downside is that the tub is quite cheap looking, for a premium luxury product it really should be of better quality. Having said that, I am ok with TOBS spending money on the actual product rather than the packaging!!!
Highly recommended, and wish that there was a matching ASB as well.
July 2014:
I finished my original tub and got another to replace it. And I am a bit disappointed. The poor packaging remains an issue, with a bit of cream leaking out. This was from either the Rose, Lavender or Eton College...I bought all three and cant tell as they were all slimy on the outside :(
Why can't TOBS make a better tub?
But worse was that TOBS seems to have changed the formulation...

Over the years I've lazily drifted towards aerosol and or gel based shaving creams but I just couldn't find one that suited my beard. They also have a tendency to clog up and solidify in the space between the blades, (even after rinsing after each shave) making for more blade changes than necessary.
A few months ago, I dug out my old shaving brush and bought a dish of shaving soap from my local chemist and again was disappointed, as it took a lot of work to build up a lather (slightly hard water here).
Persevering, I found this shaving cream here on Amazon, and as I find the smell of lavender really relaxing, I hit the one click button, and it arrived within 72 hours of ordering, which was excellent service.
I see that a fellow reviewer didn't like the packaging, which is a very thick cream plastic, with lavender lettering. I find it functional, not at all cheap looking, and for me it looks nice on the bathroom window.
Opening the screw top, you'll find that,...
