Heard this in the weekend which was within the daily mail.

Mentions that it lasts longer and is best kept in the fridge for maximum longevity.

Wondering whether this is a fact rather than myth and also a insight into the exact reasons why would suffice form a stw god.

Try using a balm instead of alcohol based aftershave-****s your skin up.

Look 30 when you're 40 etc.

Can't believe I'm giving skin tips...

Daily mail? -garbage!

I thought it was sunlight that effected it's "longlastyness".

Agree with zaskar.

Most after shaves are alcohol based and become more volatile the warmer they get. As long as the bottle is properly sealed then it shouldn't be a problem but if the contents have warmed up above room temperature and you remove the top then it will evaporate quicker than if it was stored at a lower temp.

If you do stick it in the fridge make sure the seal is airtight otherwise your food, assuming there's more than beer in your fridge, will take on a whole new taste and smell.
