How Do I Keep My Oils Fresh?
Fragrance oils are concentrated and long-lasting, but like anything natural, they need a little care to stay at their best. With the right storage, your oils will keep their strength and scent for years.
β Best Practices for Freshness:
-
Store in a Cool, Dry Place β Heat breaks down fragrance molecules. Keep bottles away from heaters, bathrooms, and hot cars.
-
Avoid Direct Sunlight β Sunlight can cause oils to discolor or shift in scent over time.
-
Keep Bottles Tightly Sealed β Oxygen exposure weakens fragrance. Always close caps snugly after each use.
-
Use Dark Glass Bottles When Possible β They help block light and preserve scent quality.
-
Handle with Clean Hands β Prevents contamination or unwanted residue mixing with the oils.
β¨ Shelf Life Expectation
With proper care, most oils easily last 2β5 years β and often much longer. Weβve kept some oils in our archive for 10 years and they still smell incredible. The key is proper storage.
β¨ Extra Tip: If your oil thickens slightly over time, thatβs normal.Β
