    Default Shave stick

    I know everyone has different taste or in this case scents they like, but I figure their has to be one shave stick that more people like than others for scent, latherbility etc.. I've wanted to purchase one, but can't pull the trigger for some reason. Some offer refills others don't. So what's your favorite shave stick? Help me decide.....

    Palmolive, EU version, Valobra, Tabac and Irisch Moos are my personal favorites.

    Gentlemen,
    I use shave stick when traveling. The ones I like are D.H. Harris, Lea and La Toja. All good stuff.

    Arko is a citrusy scent, bordering on antiseptic. Speick is an earthy, incense like scent, similar to patchouli. Both are tallow based and lather about as easy as any soap out there.

    I have a DR Harris shave stick and (naturally) it's great stuff. I'd also like to try Irisch Moos but it's harder to find.

    FWIW Valobra is nice stick as well smells like coconut play dough but lathers into a nice cushiony shave grease.
    YMMV
    It just keeps getting better
