I'm away on holiday for a week and brought a wee sample pot of proraso green cream which luckily happens to contain lanolin so I've been in so far. think the Egyptian Ingram has it too and I'm sure I'll have a few more lanolin things already open to work through.
 
Beautiful SOTD!! Duru is the lemon cologne from Turkiye? what are your impressions?
Thank you. Yes this is Turkish Kolonya and I enjoy Duru a lot. It has a very fresh, natural lemon scent. Much more ‘sherberty’ to me versus more industrial / chemical lemon scents. Mind you, I actually enjoy the scent of Arko and Derby unlike most others, so don’t trust my nose! This kolonya is 80% alcohol yet if I use it as a straight aftershave, I still find it very pleasant on my skin - no drying at all. It’s really good in the heat on holidays as a cologne, to cool down / refresh and also to clean hands. I buy in bulk from places like la barbiera and decant it.
