1–10 Year Storage Plan for Essential Oils for Hobbyists

Store essential oils cool, dark, and airtight. Oxidation, driven by oxygen, light, and heat, is the main enemy of scent and quality. Citrus oils typically move faster, while wood and resin oils can last longer when stored correctly.

How to Set Up Proper Storage

1. Buy in dark glass.
2. Keep caps snug.
3. Choose a cool, stable spot.
4. Refrigerate citrus oils when appropriate.
5. Label and rotate stock.
