Product information "Grapefruit Shaving Cream Bowl 150 g"
Grapefruit-scented shaving cream in a 150 g tub
Grapefruit Shaving Cream from Taylor of Old Bond Street is a shaving cream with a fresh citrus scent in a 150 g tub with a screw lid. Taylor calls it invigorating and describes a smooth, creamy lather; a British specialist retailer speaks of a fresh, zingy scent that is unmistakably grapefruit. The lid is decorated with grapefruits and, according to the print, the cream is made in England.
In short
For anyone who likes a clear, fruity-fresh scent when shaving and wants nothing sweet or woody. If you want a layered scent with more depth, Cedarwood has more facets.
Three reasons for this shaving cream
- Fresh citrus scent – grapefruit, described by retailers as fresh and zingy.
- Smooth, creamy lather – as Taylor describes the cream itself.
- Brush or fingers – retailers say both work, though a brush makes it easier.
What does Grapefruit Shaving Cream smell like?
There is no fragrance pyramid. Taylor and one British retailer describe the scent as invigorating grapefruit; another British specialist retailer calls it fresh, zingy and unmistakably grapefruit. So expect a clear citrus scent that brings to mind the freshly cut fruit rather than a complex perfume.

Suitable for
Wet shaving with a safety razor, straight razor or cartridge razor. For fans of citrus scents, for the morning shave and for warm months when heavy scents feel out of place.
Not ideal for
Anyone looking for a warm, woody or sweet scent. If you react to fragrances, check the ingredients list on the packaging first. When travelling, the 150 g tub is rather unwieldy.
How to use
Wet your face with warm water. Soak the shaving brush, squeeze it briefly and pick up a hazelnut-sized amount of cream. Whip it into a dense lather in a bowl or directly on the skin with circular movements and apply evenly. Without a brush: rub the cream between damp fingertips and massage it in. Shave, then rinse with cold water and pat dry. Avoid contact with the eyes.
Grapefruit or Lime Zest?
Both are citrus variants of Taylor’s shaving creams in a tub. Grapefruit is built around grapefruit, Lime Zest around lime; which citrus scent you prefer is a matter of taste.
Can I use the cream without a brush?
Yes. According to retailers it can also be applied with your fingers. With a shaving brush, however, the lather becomes denser and spreads more evenly.
Tub or tube?
We stock Grapefruit shaving cream in the 150 g tub. You load the brush straight from the tub; a tube is mainly more practical when travelling.
What goes with it?
As a second citrus variant, the Lime Zest Shaving Cream. To prepare, the Jermyn Street Pre-Shave Gel; after shaving, the Jermyn Street Luxury Aftershave Cream. You will find a suitable brush under Shaving brushes.
