Should perfumes be stored in the refrigerator ?
vor 7 Jahren
I posted this just now on the English version , my German writing isn't that good any-more but hopefully it is readable.
Many times in the souk I read 'always kept/stored cold' . Or in German 'kühl gelagert'.
There are some misunderstandings about keeping your perfumes in the refrigerator. I've been reading alot about how to store them and there are many do's and don'ts .
When a perfume is always stored in a refrigerator and it's taken out because you've sold it and sent it to the buyer, it will be challenging ( much) higher temperatures which can waste the fragrance.
I will put some links below here.
But this is the most important rule, written by the Fragrance Foundation. Afterall, it is the premier resource for expert fragrance information. Here is what they had to say:
"It's important that you keep your fragrance protected against extreme cold or heat. Only colognes and toilet waters should be stored in the refrigerator. Perfumes should not be exposed to extreme cold or heat because either may upset their delicate balance. Notes can be affected by extreme temperatures."
So, if not the refrigerator, where should you store your fragrances?
Do store fragrances in cool, dry spaces away from sunlight:
>Cupboards
>Dresser drawers
>Dark closets
Don't store fragrances in:
>Bathrooms (generally moist and warm)
>Windowsills
>Direct sunlight
