I remember hearing or reading that it was bad to keep perfume in the bathroom, because the steam of hot showers will sour the scent. Maybe my mother told me this?

I recently started keeping my favorite scents in the bathroom. I used to keep 'em on my dresser, but I don't stand in front of my dresser in the mornings, so perfume kept there is just forgotten and never worn.

My dad always keeps his cologne in the bathroom... so I think maybe it's not such a bad thing to do. Maybe I'll use it all up before it goes bad this way. Instead of just letting it sit idle and spoil.

What do you think?

You're right, the perfume I have on my dresser gets forgotten. I usually keep them in the batroom, I've had some Channel #5 in there for years, it still smells good.

Yep, gotta agree. I don't use anything on my dresser...I forget it's even there.

My hubby keeps his cologne in the bathroom as well and I have no complaints, he always smells sooo good!

Hi all,

Well I keep my cheaper scents in the refrigerator. Then I spritz them on right before I head out into the steamy Dallas summer heat and it feels wonderful. I don't know if this is a good idea or not, but someone told me about it back in St. Louis when I was 18 and I have been doing it ever since.

I don't keep my Alfred Sung in the fridge but I only wear Alfred for special evening events. However, I do keep my lighter scents in the cool air. :-)

Does anyone else do that?

Best wishes,
Karen

Oh I like that idea of keeping the scent in the fridge. After a hot day in the sun you can come home and drink a nice cool glass of lemonade and spritz some great scent on your pulse points. Does the coolness cause the scent to degrade?
