Aging Process
Aging wine is an important process to make the most delectable wine possible. The same can be said for perfumes. Perfumes need time to age for the best quality of scent.
The aging of perfume is called “maturation.” Maturation is necessary for the oil in the perfume to become more fragrant. During this process, it’s stored in a cool, dark environment where it can be remained untouched. While some fragrances only require a couple days, others require weeks or even months.

When the arranged time has passed, an expert tests if the scent is stronger than before. There can be minor adjustments like additional blending. Keeping the perfume in a cool environment without being touched is essential because it reduces the damaging effects of time. However, many perfumes have antioxidants to increase longevity.
Before every perfume you see at a shop is released, it goes through complicated steps that require effort and time to attract your attention. This applies to people who try their best to achieve their goals, which includes you.
How about you treat yourself next time with a perfume that has gone through similar efforts as you?
