Wondering if storing perfume affects its aroma? Does the shelf life of opened perfume change over time? How long can you use opened perfume? You'll find the answers to these and other questions in today's article.
How to care for opened perfume to keep it fresh?
It's important to know that to keep your perfume fresh and long-lasting, it's important to care for it properly. Be mindful of the following:
- The appropriate temperature for the room where you store your perfume bottles. Remember that high temperatures are the natural enemy of fragrances. The optimal temperature for a room where we store perfumes is 18 degrees Celsius.
- excessive light . Remember that too much light (both natural and artificial) is harmful. It is best to store perfume bottles in cardboard packaging.
- too much air.
- too much air humidity – the bathroom is not a good place to store perfume.
Remember to store your perfume in a dry, cool, and dark place—for example, a vanity drawer. Proper storage conditions will extend the life of your perfume and prevent its scent from changing.
Factors affecting the durability of perfume – How long can you store opened perfume?
It's important to emphasize that perfumes don't expire. Perfumes, like creams and balms, can be stored for long periods without losing their properties. However, perfume packaging may also include a label indicating how long the product will retain its properties after opening.
Please remember, however, that this is an approximate date and should not be relied upon.
Many people also wonder whether perfume can spoil after opening. It's worth remembering that after a long time, perfumes can change color, change scent, and lose their longevity and initial aroma. To avoid this, choose smaller bottles of perfume that are used relatively infrequently.
How can you tell if your perfume has lost its quality? – What are the signs that your perfume has gone bad?
A sign that perfume has expired is:
- cloudy color of the liquid,
- visible particles floating in the liquid,
- sour smell,
- a scent that quickly dissipates,
- lack of scent intensity.
What conditions favor longer storage of perfume?
Proper storage of perfumes helps extend their shelf life and enhance their beautiful fragrance. Suitable conditions include:
- cool room,
- dark room,
- dry place,
- storing perfumes in their original cardboard packaging,
- avoiding storing perfume in a humid place.
Do perfumes have an expiration date after opening?
Perfumes, like other cosmetics, don't have a specific expiration date. However, you'll find a specific marking on perfume packaging. This is indicated by the PAO symbol (a symbol of an open jar/bottle with a specified number of months remaining). This number of months guarantees that the perfume won't lose its properties during this time.
