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.....

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. Originally Posted by Trimmy72

Thanks for all the suggestion's! Order showed up earlier this week, DR Harris Lavender & Arlington (smells like 4711) or as my wife likes to call it 24-7 because she can't remember what it's really called.....anyhow I was expecting better lather from this one, La toya smells great & works great! Palmolive smells great to, haven't used it yet, I will tonight. Thanks again, you all have good noses for scents, and good products! I guess I'll add Valobra, Speick, and Arko to the next order. So many soaps so little time......

Being in Europe (UK), there is one that is so widely available and that is the venerable Palmolive stick. It's tallow based, does the job very well and is absolutely dirt cheap. You simply can't go wrong with this one IMHO.
