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? ------------- "Hair is a part of you.

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. ------------- |

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 ------------- That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger or drives you totally insane. :-) |

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? Star ------------- |
