Sunlight
Sunlight exposure and too much of it can damage a perfume bottle, we advise you store them in darker places potentially a closed closet or drawer.
Away for young children and babies
Young children and toddlers have a curious mindset; they are always exploring, and when they see a perfume bottle their natural instinct is to play with the bottle.
Firstly, there is a danger element that a child may swallow the perfume or the components such as the lid.
Other consequences include the lid getting lost rendering the bottle useless or very difficult to use. The bottle breaking meaning you will be required to dispose of the perfume not to mention potential damage caused to carpet or furniture.
In these instances, to prevent these we would recommend you store the perfume at the highest point of the shelve and not visible also or maybe locking away in a cupboard.
The right temperature
Really high or low temperature can affect the quality of your fragrance.
You may want to store it away somewhere in the home where the temperature does not dramatically change.
Stay away from places like the bathroom, due to dampness and somethings it can get very cold.
We would recommend a storage cupboard or inside the bedroom.
Avoid humidity
Again, as mentioned previous avoid the bathroom due to humidity.
As a general rule try keeping the house humid free by ensuring good ventilation in every room.
Open windows where you can or even invest in a dehumidifier, just so you get good quality air, poor quality causes damp and more importantly the quality of your perfume to begins to deteriorate and loses its quality.
Avoid Shaking the bottle
Many people get into the habit of shaking the perfume. Remember it is not a deodorant and should not be treated like one. Excess shaking exposes the perfume to excess air which can be more harmful than useful, gradually as a result the quality and performance of the perfume begins to deteriorate.
