On TikTok, where trends are born at breakneck speed, a different fragrance goes viral every week.
Im trying to stop because Im constantly in a cycle of finding new obsessions.
David Seth Moltz, perfumer and founder ofD.S.
& Durga, offers hope to frag-heads everywhere.
In reality, perfumes last much longer when stored properly.
So, does age affect the juice inside?
Do Certain Perfumes Expire More Quickly?
This operation ensures that your fragrance will remain stable for several years.
It is usually the top notes that are first to disappear or change after a couple of years.
This is because the more volatile citrus notes will disappear more quickly.
Color is another factor that age affects.
Gourmand fragrancesare susceptible to a significant change in color, which may not appeal to everyone.
Woody and some green, slightly sweet fragrances are likely to age better.
Moltz agrees and adds that scents like patchouli and sandalwood are going to smell amazing after 20 years.
You cant do it the fragrance would smell of alcohol until it settles.
They are facing away from all the windows, but I dont manage the temperature in any way.
But the same can be said of wine.
Does that mean it is no longer good?
Only if you dont like it.
