Speick Cologne Old vs. New

[TraderJoe]

Before I throw out these boxes, I thought I would put this picture up as proof that the cologne has indeed changed......so you didn't think I was nuts the next time I complain about how its not as good anymore :rofl

I never tried either.

Will, I tried the older Speick cologne years ago, and I loved it. I bought it here in Montreal before the Speick line disappeared from here.

I've only tried the Speick cream and A/S. Never tried the cologne.

Joe, is the new formula that much worse, or merely different?

Well if the cologne smells like the cream........i pass :P

Nah, the new stuff is still good, very good actually, just not AS good ;)

In fact, the "old" stuff may be out there, somewhere......it comes as a splash.

I make a point of this discussion because I feel the "new" Speick cologne, while not as good as the "old"........is better than the new Burt's Bees cologne, and half the price. :cool: (price per ounce)

[TraderJoe]

The "new" is only missing one thing: lavandula angustifolia.......so in theory you could just add some E.O. and bring it up to par. But how much ;)

All I know is that I need more of it. ;)

Those sneaky sneaks! While I have never tried this particular brand I too have noticed far too many of my old items (Food, whatever) being replaced or changed without my knowledge. No idea why they feel the need to do such things..
