Taylor of Old Bond Street Jermyn Street Aftershave Lotion 100ml

I've had this aftershave for a few months now and I really like it. The fragrance is great, and there is excellent uniformity across the TOBS Jermyn Street line. It really is great for sensitive skin and does not sting or burn or otherwise cause redness or irritation. My only complaint is that this aftershave is a bit thick and as such the atomizer doesn't provide a good spray directly onto the face. I usually spray it on my hand first and then apply to get better coverage.

I’m a fan of the Jermyn Street shaving cream, so I think this scent is very nice. Amazed that an alcohol-free aftershave splash works as well as this does. Being an aftershave, the scent doesn’t hang in the air for very long, which is how I like it.

Another welcome addition to the rotation

I like to be as consistent as I can in my shaving cream and aftershave, so I picked up a bottle of this to use when my Jermyn Street shaving cream comes up in the rotation. I don't have particularly sensitive skin, so I can't speak to that but I can say it smells great and works well. As others have noted, it's not a "lotion" as we think of but rather a liquid. Afaik it's the only TOBS aftershave that comes with a spray top. I recommend that you spray it into your hand and apply it to your face rather than do it directly. Otherwise, you may end up spraying your hair, the mirror, your cat, etc.TOBS does make a true aftershave lotion in the Jermyn Street line, by the way. It's called a "cream" and comes in a tube.

I use it to dab a little under my eyes and behind my ears, where my skin is particularly dry especially in winter. This stuff isn't cheap but as with so many products a little goes a long way, especially if you use it as part of a rotation.

Great scent long lasting

I bought this aftershave to compliment the jermyn shave cream I bought. It matches the shave cream scent perfectly but the scent is a bit strong and dosent wear off for 3-4 hours in my experience. Good thing I love the scent! also the atomizer does have trouble misting the product but I just spray it onto my fingers and spread onto my face accordingly. All things considered I like this aftershave but I think you should make sure you like this scent before you buy such a long lasting aftershave.

Just Like the Jermyn Street Shaving Cream, This Stuff Is Great!

Unfortunately, I had to try two scents of the Taylor of Old Bond Street line before I discovered the wonderful scent of the Jermyn Street collection. I own the shaving cream and this aftershave. I found the Sandalwood scent to smell like an old man and the Eton College to smell like old avon perfume and hairspray. Jermyn Street is hands down my favorite. There is no cooling property in this aftershave. It feels warm when applied to the face. The atomizer pump more than likely will not work well for you. This is been mentioned in several other reviews and I am experiencing it also. Who cares?! Spray some in your hands and apply onto face. I also recommend using this in conjunction with the Jermyn Street shave cream. I'm not all that good at explaining a scent, but ... MoreUnfortunately, I had to try two scents of the Taylor of Old Bond Street line before I discovered the wonderful scent of the Jermyn Street collection.

I'm not all that good at explaining a scent, but I'll give a few words and hopefully they'll help you if you need to decide to spend the money to get this stuff (I would now...you've read enough of my review...click that "buy now" button) -Fresh, not going to smell like an old man or old woman as some TOBS scents do, amber, vanilla, spice, classy.

Not a "lotion"!

This is listed as a "lotion"...however, not true. It is a traditional after shave "splash" that has a pump spray top. I love the Jermyn Street Collection and purchased this only to be disappointed that it was not a creamy lotion. No where on the bottle does it say "lotion". Feels a bit greasy and not moisturizing at all. Think I'll try the cream instead.....

Not sure if genuine yet.

I have always used Jermyn street after shave and this one wasnt right. The scent wasnt there and it left my face itchy. Something Jeremys street has never done before. I have contacted Taylors of Bond Street and asked if they have changed the ingredients.

Scent of a gentleman.

First. I love the Jermyn street collection scent. It is subtle, soft, masculine and is what I would consider the scent of a gentleman (if you like musky scents like the stuff boys wear, then this is not your scent). The scent lasts really well, and I can still smell it several hours after application. The spray mechanism works great for me. It works great as an aftershave, with a little burn (nothing compared to aftershaves with alcohol), it nourishes my skin and leaves me feeling moisturized, but not oily at all.

good stuff

This is a good aftershave that soothes the face after a shave. However, I have one qualm with this product. Maybe due to the nature of being alcohol-free, the atomizer seems to have trouble dispersing a fine mist. The aftershave itself seems to be slightly more viscous than its alcohol-based counterparts. Overall, it is a good aftershave and it accompanies the jermyn street shaving cream perfectly, as the scents match exactly.

simply outstanding

Another winner from TOBS. I used this for the first time today and I think this is easily one of my favorites.Like all TOBS products, the performance is great:great aftershave feelgreat scent and great longevityfairly pricedi honestly was surprised how strong it went on and how long it lingered. I prefer this, so that is a huge plus for me. I mostly surprised since it isn't alcohol based so I guess I assumed it be like a lot of balms I've used where it fades relatively quickly.Ironically, I had more of a sting from this than my alcohol based TOBS. That's fine with me, but a fair warning if you don't want a sting after you shave, although that may just be my experience with it.The only con for me is the atomizer. I don't like that and prefer the ole pour ... MoreAnother winner from TOBS.

I don't like that and prefer the ole pour through a flow restrictor experience. I may cut the atomizer out and place a makeshift flow restrictor. But, that's just preference and it doesn't take away from the quality of this product.5 stars hands down.
