RazoRock NOMAD Shaving Cream Soap
NOMAD uses our RazoRock Super Formula enriched with Shea Butter, Argan Oil, Aloe Vera and Lanolin, for a nourishing post-shave feel and superior razor glide.
I'm one of those rare birds that actually likes going to the mall with my wife. Why you may ask? Because I get to explore the latest and greatest at the fragrance counters! A lot of the inspiration for RazoRock products comes from fragrances I can't afford to purchase; surely I can't be the only one around here WITHOUT a limitless credit card or bank account?! This brings us to NOMAD. What is it?
One day, while strolling around a well air conditioned mall in Tampa, Florida, I stumbled into an Art of Shaving store. Low and behold, they were recently stocked with a bunch of Penhaligons fragrances and testers! Spray, sniff, spray, sniff... there were so many winners, but one scent stood out from the crowd... ZIZONIA! I was so stoked that I asked for a bunch of samples and brought them back to my business partner to sniff. Guess what? I wasn't the only one in love with this scent.
Fast forward a few years and with the aid of an expert perfumer in France, we have created a RazoRock version of Zizonia. It wasn't cheap and it wasn't fast but I hope you enjoy it as much as we do... and, it won't leave you feeling guilty.
RazoRock shaving cream soaps are best used with a traditional shaving brush; if you are new to wet shaving, be sure to check out our RazoRock Plissoft brushes, they offer incredible value and performance.

What a fantastic formulation. It was super slick, and left my face and neck feeling silky smooth, like a baby’s belly. Even hours later, my face still felt silky smooth, hydrated, and moisturized. I’m fairly new to wet shaving, and have tried FTS, Proraso green, WCS Pear Brrr-Shoppe, and now the RazoRock Nomad. The last two gave me the best results, as well as having the best scents, and are both in my current rotation. I look forward to trying the other RazoRock fragrances. Thanks for having such great products.
To my nose there is just a hint of spice, wood, and a nuttiness to it. Not sweet or bitter, rather neutral. Scent is non existent after the shave. Seems to make lather as good as other RR soft soaps.
I got this during the recent "we're moving" sale. I have many RR soaps and generally I like them, but I noticed the same issues as in the 2 earlier reviews. The so-called "mysterious blend of creamy woods and warm spices" does not exist at all. Neither when opening the packaging, nor when creating a lather. All I can smell is just... well... a generic soap. The container I got says lot no 03818 so I'm guessing this is a 2018 batch. Shaving performance is ok but the scent is far from inspiring to try it again. Regret spending money on this, even if it was just a few dollars.
HI Olaf,
Nomad is a very soft scent for people that like very mild fragrance soaps. It is definitely not a powerhouse scent and is designed to be like that
This soap arrived yesterday and I used it for the first time this morning with my GC 84 OC razor, BIC blade, and a Georgetown Pottery scuttle. I was surprised how fast it created a very thick and long lasting lather that stayed warm in the scuttle for three passes. The scent is pleasant and not overbearing. Great deal at the sale price!
I've been a huge fan of the Nomad Aftershave for a couple of years.
This soap has like 5% of the smell that the aftershave has. It smells more like the soap ingredients. I feel like they ran out of the fragrance oils when they mixed the batch.
I was also kind of disappointed with the performance of the shave. Not as good as typical Razorock. Not very slick. Kind of dry. Probably going to give it to a friend.
