London

Hi all,

I am in London currently. What shave/fragrence shops should I visit while I am here. Also any other suggestions are greatly welcomed.

Thanks

One suggestion: do not attempt to shave on a space hopper.

duotone nailed it. Each of those is a major London brand and I can't think of any more off the top of my head.

How I wish I had discovered this stuff before I went to London in March.

The above is a great compendium. I would also check out Czech & Speake at 39c Jermyn Street. Have fun!

Floris is close to C&S on Jermyn St.

Dude you must see the badger brush in the cabinet at D R Harris it's massive. I didn't get a photo for the guys here but you could! Also the service in there is second to none, very friendly and all the time in the world to serve and answer any questions. Make sure you have a straight shave when in town but I wouldn't go to T&H try elsewhere. Also Marco Piere White has a restaurant on the same street and it is so so cheap for lunch. I missed a trick when I was there so think on and score some top food for a knock down price. Enjoy yourself.

Hit the drug stores, and make sure not to leave without Erasmic

+1 on the Jermyn Street area! It really is Disneyland for wetshavers...I would also check out the Fortnum and Mason store on Piccadilly, they have a really great assortment of "gentlemen's" products (Dopp kits, clothes/hair brushes, cufflinks, old-fashioned globes, etc)...
