I've read too many threads praising Speick so I finally ordered some. I normally try to fend off the hype and I have enough creams to last me 5+ years but man am I glad I got this stuff. It smells incredible, it's slick as it can be, lathers like an absolute champ and creates one heck of a shave. I can't believe I waited this long to try it. After only three days of using it, I ordered the after shave lotion AND balm. Now that I have a tube of the cream in the cabinet, it's hard NOT to reach for it. It truly lives up to it's name.
