Tips for travelling with your perfumes on a plane and keeping them in perfect condition

There is currently no ban on travelling by plane with perfume. However, you should bear in mind that there are certain rules that affect the liquids that travel on board.

In general, all liquids that you take on board a plane must be in containers of no more than 100 ml. In addition, the bottles must be placed in a transparent plastic bag with an airtight seal. And bear in mind that, in total, liquids in toiletries and perfumes may not exceed one litre.
There are different options for transparent bags to carry liquids in the suitcases you take on board an unchecked plane. Take note of their dimensions; they are usually no more than 20 cm in height and width.
If you are stopped at the baggage checkpoint to check your hand luggage, you don't need to worry if you have followed these instructions. Just show the transparent bag to the airport staff, following their instructions.

Are you checking in luggage? Then you can be more generous with the perfumes and products you take on your trip. There are no specific restrictions on the number of bottles, as long as you don't exceed the weight limit allowed by the airline.
The days of restricting liquids on planes could be over sooner than we think. Major airports around the world are planning to install more accurate scanners that will allow the inside of luggage to be validated without the need to remove liquids or electronic devices, which will undoubtedly make it quicker and more convenient to travel by plane without checking bags.

The rules for train travel are less strict than for air travel. There are no restrictions on perfume or the size of containers. However, you should take precautions to avoid breakages or loss of liquid that could damage your clothes or luggage.

Regardless of the means of transport we use to travel, if we want to carry our perfumes in our suitcase, we must be careful to prevent the bottles from breaking and make sure they are well sealed to avoid surprises when opening the luggage.
Choose a bag or vanity case, preferably waterproof and with a closure that minimises the risk of liquid leaks. You can even choose to transport the perfume in its original packaging or wrapped in bubble wrap to cushion any possible knocks during transport.

Whether you travel with perfumes or not, if you want to extend the life of your perfume for as long as possible, you should take into account the following tips recommended by experts to store them correctly:
Protect your perfume from direct light: place your perfumes in a cupboard or even in their original packaging to protect them from light.
Beware of extreme temperature changes: drastic variations in temperature can alter their properties. Avoid storing your perfumes near radiators and air conditioners.
Humidity: avoid leaving perfumes in the bathroom where changes in temperature and humidity can damage the scent.
A trick… Have you not used a perfume for a while? To make sure your scent is in perfect condition, spray three or four sprays of the fragrance into the air. In this way you will be sure to expel any content that may have remained between the pump and the diffuser and which may be oxidised.
If it's hot… Is it a good idea to store perfume in the fridge? Experts advise against storing perfumes in the fridge, as excessive cold can alter the balance of the composition.
