• The right way to store your perfume in the fridge

To protect your perfume bottle and help with the setting inside the fridge, you will initially need to separate a container where your perfume will be stored.

Since, considering that fragrances have an average shelf life of 3 years, by storing it in the fridge, you will be extending its shelf life by up to 5 or 6 years.

However, you need to be aware: citrus and floral perfumes cannot be stored in the refrigerator. Among others, it will be necessary to read the label of your perfume to be sure that the fragrance tolerates colder temperatures.

Thus, you also end up avoiding the entry of air and oxidation of the product.
