Perfume does not go "bad" as in getting spoiled, but its scent and color will change over time. The shelf life of most designer fragrances, from production date, and if stored properly, is a maximum of 3 to 5 years - though being much less for pure perfume. The more alcohol a perfume contains, the longer the shelf life. Just keep your perfume tightly closed as alcohol evaporates - that's actually how others know you're wearing discount womens perfume. Synthetic ingredients will last longer than natural ones. Woody scents tend to evaporate slower than citrus scents. You will find that perfume in bottles that are blue or opaque tend to last longer than clear bottles. It becomes very obvious when a perfume is past its prime as the scent is no longer appealing and the liquid looks darker in the bottle.
Womens perfumes and mens colognes should be stored in a cool, dark and dry place. Do not expose your fragrances to any sunlight in order to keep its integrity. Keep the cap of your womens perfume tightly closed, in the case of splash cologne. Spray cologne containers are sealed and not exposed to air, so their shelf life is longer. Avoid exposing your perfume to excessive hot or cold temperatures, as these changes in the environment may influence the balance of certain ingredients. Even though fragrances should preferably be in dark places, the refrigerator is not a good storage place. The closet or a dresser drawer may be suitable places to store your designer womens perfume. Forget about the medicine cabinet: the bathroom has more humidity and gets warmer with hot showers.
