Art of Shaving are/were brick and mortar stores owned by P&G. Most were located in malls. Since foot traffic is most malls has declined dramatically over the past decade, so has the profitability of the AOS stores. Nearly all of the stores in the country have closed. The Art of Shaving stores were generally located in higher end malls and most of their offerings were overpriced.

A few years ago, my daughter gave me a $50 gift card to AOS for my birthday. I purchased a puck of AOS soap in a wooden bowl. The gift certificate did not cover the entire cost, so I had to add some extra. When I tried using the soap, I found the performance to be below average (C minus). It was reasonably slick but lacked residual slickness, skin protection and post shave conditioning. Even the sandalwood scent was not that great. I used the soap for three shaves and then set it aside never to be used again. Thus, the cost per shave was about $18. The product was overpriced and underperforming. If you are willing to spend that kind of money, you can do much better elsewhere.

I thanked my daughter for her thoughtfulness, but suggested that she forget about Art of Shaving as a source of gifts..

Even if the AOS store in Miami is still open, I would suggest you browse the store, but keep your money securely in your pocket.
