How do I store perfumes properly?
Perfumes are not only a luxury item, but also delicate compositions of essential oils, alcohol and fragrances. Proper storage is crucial to ensure that they retain their quality and intensity for a long time. Here you can find out how to optimally store your favorite fragrances.
1. Avoid light and sun
Direct sunlight and strong light can break down the delicate fragrance molecules and change the scent. Therefore, store your perfumes in a dark place, such as a drawer or in the original box.
2. Minimize temperature fluctuations
Strong temperature fluctuations have a negative effect on the fragrances. Therefore, do not store your perfume in the bathroom, as the temperature there can change significantly due to showering or heating. A cool, constant place - ideally between 15 and 20 degrees Celsius - is optimal.
3. Avoid moisture
High humidity can cause the composition of the perfume to change, so it is better not to store perfumes in humid rooms such as the bathroom. Instead, the bedroom or a special storage cabinet is more suitable.
4. Always close the bottle tightly
Oxygen can oxidize the fragrances and change the scent. Make sure the bottle is always tightly closed to extend the shelf life of your perfume.
5. Do not store perfumes in the refrigerator
Some believe that storing in the refrigerator will extend the shelf life. However, the high humidity in the refrigerator can affect the fragrances. A cool, dry place out of direct sunlight is better.
Conclusion:
With proper storage, you can extend the shelf life and intensity of your perfume considerably. Keep your fragrances away from light, heat, moisture and air to preserve their quality for as long as possible. This way, you can enjoy your favorite Bestscent fragrance for longer!
