freezing fragrances

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
I have a delivery coming tomorrow and I won't be home when it arrives. I'm worried that my fragrance *might* freeze if its left outside too long. Winter comes quick and butal in Ithaca - tomorrow is supposed to have a HIGH of 23degF(-5degC) and a low of 10degF (-12degC). I know alcohol has a lower freezing point than water, thats why vodka doesn't freeze in your freezer. So the question is - Does fragrance have enough alcohol to handle it? Vodka is 40% alcohol - do you think fragrance has more or less?

Well, the high here was in the 20's(F) today, and my decants and samples arrived seemingly unmolested by the cold. Granted, they were in my mailbox for less than an hour, more than likely, before I got them inside. THursday another shipment of decants is probably gonna arrive, and the high here is only supposed to be 20 that day...I'm not worried. ;D

Usually fragrance has about 80% of alcohol. No worries.
