My wife is Turkish and I've arranged for a friend to send me a box of a shaving soap I'd not heard of but have read reviews on B&B about, which speaks of it as being the BEST soft Turkish shaving soap doing the rounds.
It's called Camelot (trades as
Camelot Classic Shaving Stick).
The 'shootout' that they did between it and the other Turkish shave sticks(Arko, Derby, Tweex) was very interesting but best of all it sounds like these don't have the cliched Lemon odour.
The thing that gets me is that even when bought through a retailer thats marked them up at point of sale the price was 11 Turkish Lira (~$5.50) for a dozen. Gawd imagine what they'd be if you sourced through the maker or wholesaler!!!
Best price I could find anywhere else was Ebay and it was like $10 for a single stick delivered!!!!
I had to laugh she emailed and told me about getting them this morning and said,"I also got you a dozen of these other ones that the Barber said is more popular, have you heard of Arko?"
Of the dozen of these I ordered a few yrs back I think I've got around 9 left (squished 3 or so into a jar). ANyway we'll see how it goes. Might be off to Turkey next year so if I do perhaps I'll try and grab some order for folks and post them back to ya'll....haha I don't fancy carting loads of shaving stuff around.....just my own lifetime supply! ;-)
