Pros & Cons
Pros
Pre-shave oil leaves skin less irritated and more closely shaven. No splatter. Makes shaving even with en electric razor much smoother.
Shave oil is either equal or better quality than what i was using from the art of shaving. I do wish this had a spray top instead of the eyedropper.
The scent is subtle and not overpowering. The black forest scent isnt over powering and really is only just faint.
Leaking dropper bottle. This is the only one that got the dispenser right. Lol now is one of the only companies i can think of that still stells 100% bottles of it.
Cons
This oil has zero scent what so ever. Not one bit of a citrus smell at all. It smells like oil that is starting to go bad. Does a decent job as a pre-shave oil, but it is basically unscented.

I'm willing to pay for quality but get offended when a company thinks it's okay to gouge me and other customers.
Price
For the price i didnt have anything to lose.
Works perfect at a very reasonable price.
The price is a 1/4 of what i was paying for the high end stuff too.
Shipping
It does leak a bit during shipping.
Packaging/appearance
I’m giving this 5 stars because of the packaging, the scents, and the look of the razor.
Vendor needs to take a hard look at packaging.
It'd be nice if they changed the packaging to a 'shaker' dispenser instead.
The sent of the pre-shave oil is mild and pleasant.
Competitiveness
First time i've used a pre-shave oil and it definitely is a plus when shaving.
Even when shaving immediately this product still works like a champ.
This vikings product was my last effort to find an alternative to electric pre-shave offerings.
I used to use a pre-shave oil but ran out a long time ago and never purchased more because i never felt it made my shave any easier.

With the race to the bottom with every corporation caring only about the quarterly report and stock price and consumer apathy and giving into futility that thing product will be adequate but not good its not surprising we all accept poor quality in everything
