Product Storage
The shelf life is not the same for all essential oils. Some are particularly volatile and will be about six months if kept correctly, e.g. the citrus oils such as Bergamot and Neroli. Others will keep for a year and a half to two years depending on storage conditions. The same can be said of the carrier oils, for instance Flax is at its best for a very short time of around three months. Some may stay in a good condition for a year if carefully stored. The more unsaturated an oil the more vulnerably it is to deterioration. Hence the use of preservatives in so many of today's products. The recommended shelf life for macerates is around nine months and flower waters six to nine months.
