5.0 out of 5 stars Works well with an electric shaver
I bought this for use with a shaver. To be specific, I use the Panasonic Arc 3 ES-LT6N. It works well for that use-case scenario. It provides a layer of lubrication so the shaver's head can glide more easily over the skin. It's particularly good after a shower. My whiskers are softened up nicely and I hardly feel any resistance or hear the typical crunching sounds of hairs being cut. Any decent shaving cream could get you a similar result, I suppose, but this product has the added advantage of allowing you to see what you're doing. I find that the closeness is a bit better compared to no product at all, again, specially after a shower (your face doesn't need to be still wet). I haven't experienced any irritation or allergies. I do get some ingrown hairs, but that happens to me with any product or shaving method I've tried. I'm not very good at describing smells, but to me it has a light earthy/herby fragrance. It's closer to some beard oils I've used than to a typical perfume or eau de cologne. It's inoffensive and a good option if you don't like strong fragrances or if you'll be using a strong aftershave because they won't clash.Since it is an oil, it is obviously oily so the hair clippings tend to lump together and stick to the cutters. It's not too bad, but you will need to clean your shaver more thoroughly more often. Simply rinsing under the tap will not remove all the gunk.I did also try it once with a Gillette Mach3 since it says it can be used with a standard razor without any shaving cream. Mind you, I stopped using traditional blades on a regular basis years ago so I'm out of practice and the razor I had laying around might not have been the sharpest, but the results were pretty bad. I didn't get hurt, but the razor hardly seemed to be cutting any hairs. As I said, I'm not the best person to ask when it comes to traditional wet shaving, but I figured I'd share my experience.In conclusion, I'm happy with the results when using an electric shaver and I'd recommend it for that use-case scenario. As for traditional wet shaving - I'm not convinced you can get by without using foam or gell as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great oil for close shaving
I had held off reviewing as it is in different packaging than the picture and different from that supplied by Boots previously. I checked with King of Shaves who confirm it is genuine and that this supplier is the only one able to stock their products on Bolo. The packaging has changed and now is supplied in 2x 30ml alum bottles. The oil is thinner than my recollection of the non-sensitive version and is perfumed. The non foaming oil means I can see my beard whilst shaving and the shave I get is closer on my neck and cheeks than other products are. I use a Braun Series 3 wet and dry shaver as a wet shave. Great stuff and lasts for ages with a daily shave but once I am out of it I will buy it again.

The oil is good to use and is value for money
5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely helps get a comfortable shave.
I keep a bottle in my work bag and one in the bathroom. Lid seems quite secure, so handy for traveling.If you've just washed your face, as you should before shaving, the head of your electric shaver will have trouble doing it's job, it'll feel like it's sticking to your skin. A couple of pumps of this stuff rubbed over your skin, give it 30 seconds or so and then shave, you'll find the shaver does it's job without getting stuck. Good gear, smells nice too.Just remember to clean out your shaver afterwards, you don't want the blades getting gummed up before your next shave.
3.0 out of 5 stars I think if you have sensitive skin this isn't really for you.
The menthol/eucalyptus stuff in this can really irritate skin. I find it ok with beard trimmer but for a real shave I don't think I can recommend.
Excellent product

Very good, as always.
I've been using this shaving oil for many years and I'll continue.
Odeur agréable
Texture et odeur agréable et légère
Really smooth shave
I was recommended this product by a friend. Having now tried it for 2 weeks, I can say that the shave is much cleaner/smoother than using foam, plus my skin feels so much better after shaving. I was also surprised how few drops of the oil are needed for each shave. Overall, really pleased - an excellent find.
