In the summer if you spray it on the whole body, it acts as a repellent and keeps away mosquitoes and could even be dabbed against pimples to kill germs immediately. com perfumes magazine - All Rights Reserved - do not copy anything without prior written permission.

Meaning “cologne”, kolonya has been a treasured symbol of Turkish hospitality and health since the Ottoman Empire, and it’s often described as Turkey’s national scent.

Thank you for my walk down memory lane-the scents that are most prevalent in my memory of childhood are 4711, Jean Nate and Nivea cream-they were a ubiquitous part of our household toiletteries. Bonvila was established in 2017 with a clear vision in mind: to bring inspiring ethnic food to tables all across the UK and Ireland. Limon Kolonyasi is arguably an even simpler recipe than a traditional Eau de Cologne, but its infusion of essential oils of lemon and fragrant lemon blossoms into pure, clear grain alcohol makes it an ubiquitous addition to the mundane, elevating it into an everyday celebration of happiness: obviously refreshing, less obviously exhilarating, tingling the nose with its tartness and leaving a faint impression of purity and the sense that everything is as it should be.As commercial hand sanitizers run dry in the US and Europe, people in Turkey are turning to a traditional, aromatic fragrance that has taken on a whole new relevance amid the coronavirus pandemic: kolonya. Thankfully, that was not my experience, but I guess many things have changed since, people were poorer then, they might also wear more polyester clothes (which are cheaper) and those tend to smell, yuck! But unlike other natural scents, this ethanol-based concoction’s high alcohol content can kill more than 80% of germs and act as an effective hand disinfectant. v=1654114838","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":24775946862752,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.

And as an aside Pacifica Malibu Lemon Blossom is a scent I wore last summer which lends itself nicely to this post. The small alleys of Izmir, languid by the sea that floats endlessly under the afternoon silvery sun rays, and the cobblestone maze of Istanbul, hide in their bowels a fresh, zingy and insouciant smell of innocent childhood.

There is also Bogazicki Turkish Cologne which is recommended for after a wet shave and Selin Lemon Cologne. I have been rubbing down with the Selin cologne after a shower (and following with whatever perfume took my fancy; both chypres and orientals went very well with it) for a couple months now and I'm running out. Elena Vosnaki has been the Perfume History Curatorof the Be Open Foundation exhibition The Garden of Wonders, A Journey in Scents in Milan EXPO, as well as a guest Lecturer at the Athens School of Fine Arts.

In other words, it’s time to savour a relaxed trip before the busy winter season—and Brits are already deep into planning mode for autumn holidays. With a history that stretches back to the times on the Ottoman Empire, Lemon Cologne is a tradition that has long been upheld in the region, with a wealth of varieties and brands now producing the cologne in contemporary Turkey as well as further afield.

Traditionally, the aroma derives from fig blossoms, jasmine, rose or citrus ingredients (usually contains limonene and linalool). I love their Molinard de Molinard and also enjoy Nirmala and Tendre Friandise from current offerings.

Now that people have bathrooms and both liquid and bar soap in their homes it might not be as necessary. Kolonya originated in Turkey – then part of the Ottoman Empire – in the 19th century, when cologne was first imported from Germany. The Turkish, you see, not only use it as a general purpose mild disinfectant for their skin (as it is 80proof alcohol after all) but to wipe clean anything from toilets and sinks to bathtubs and tiles as a finishing touch of freshness, after a soapy lather, instead of the artificial potent scent of the cleaning fluids advertised on TV. He proceeded to "wash" his hands in the cologne letting the excess drip out of his hands and down his arm or onto the floor. Continue smiling even though my hands are now on fire because they are really dry and someone just poured what seems to be alcohol on them.
