Spicy Sandalwood opens with the aromatic freshness of lavender, rosemary, and geranium energized by the distinctive warmth of pink pepper. Carnation, fern, and orange blossom develop through the heart before the fragrance settles into a substantial woody foundation of sandalwood, earthy patchouli, vetiver, powdery musk, and rock rose. The result is a refined fougère that gives traditional sandalwood a more aromatic, spicy, and sophisticated character.

Best For: Traditional wet shavers who enjoy classic sandalwood fragrances but want additional spice, aromatic herbs, florals, and earthy depth in a luxurious English shaving cream.

FAQ

What does Taylor of Old Bond Street Spicy Sandalwood smell like?
Spicy Sandalwood is a classic fougère built around pink pepper, lavender, rosemary, and geranium with floral notes of carnation and orange blossom over sandalwood, patchouli, vetiver, powdery musk, and rock rose.

Is Spicy Sandalwood simply a sandalwood fragrance?
No. Sandalwood provides an important part of the woody base, but the fragrance is considerably more complex. Aromatic herbs, pink pepper, florals, patchouli, vetiver, and musk give it the layered character of a traditional fougère.

Do I need a shaving brush?
No. The manufacturer's directions state that the cream may be applied with either the hand or a shaving brush. A shaving brush is recommended for traditional wet shavers who want to build a fuller, richer lather.
