    Great review Joel.

    If I had one wish about Speick, it would be that the scent was just a bit stronger. It is great stuff. I like the feel of Speick much more than the feel of Musgo Real.

    If Musgo Real applied like Speick but smelled like Musgo, then my friend it would be the perfect aftershave.

    How does this stuff compare to the scent of Tabac's cologne?

    Thanks for that! I was up for some more Speick, and the discount was a nice bonus!
    This won't hurt at all...

    Thanks for the review. I use the cream and aftershave but had no idea this stuff was so unique. Very interesting.

    I wish they'd come out with a menthol injected version of the splash for summer time.

    This is where layering might get you your wish Mike. If you use the shower soap, shaving cream (or shaving stick), the deo, the aftershave and the cologne, I would say there is a pretty good chance of strengthening the Speick scent.

    who I am kidding. I just put in an order with beautyhabit.com promo code for the Speik Aftershave Balm, Shave stick, bar soap, and the package that includes a tube of cream, the aftershave splash and a brush. Saved $9.54.

    I really enjoyed the Speick shaving cream; wonderful scent, lather, etc. On the basis of these reviews, I'm very tempted to try the stick and splash.

    Wow. Its incredible that the first thing I see today when I get on to B&B is this thread on Speick.
    A week ago I was talking to a co-worker who moved here from Germany, if he had heard anything about these products from Speick.He said he did and mentioned that the products had received some type of certification or award from OKO TEST (I think this is an Eco-friendly consumer products magazine in Germany. The name is on all the boxes). He then said that one of our managers in Germany was coming to the US and he would ask him to bring me the shaving stick. Today, when I get to my desk there is this bag from a store called Mueller and inside was the Speick SC, AB, and the shaving stick. Now this review has got me thinking on getting the AS. I can't wait to try this stuff out. Thanks for the review.

    Thanks Joel ... I realized that, and the article indicated there were differences but that in some ways it was "preferred". Just throwing out a reference since some enterprising person might want to get some and see what they could do.

    There seems to be some confusion about the spelling of the product. The thread title needs edited I think.

    Great review. Sadly this stuff is hard to find over where I live. Next time I'm in Germany I'll definately try to find some.

    Does this smell identical to their Deo Stick (deodorant)? If so, I'll definitely pick some up.

    I find the Shave Stick smells different than the Deo Stick. Both are excellent products though. I think the Speick Shave Stick is only second to good old Tabac.
