Which oil for door & tailgate locks please?

The subject almost says it all; I mean locks (i.e. in the key hole) not latches & hinges

Should I be using:-

spray silicone lubricant ?

WD-40 ?

Specialised graphite lubricant, in which case which one?

Some thing else ?

 Am I Gammon or Woke ? - I neither know nor care.

Any type of graphite lock lube available from all good hardware stores, in a little plastic bottle with a spout on the end.
Don't use WD40 or oil as that will just attract dust and dirt.
