Proper storage is critical for preserving the integrity of essential oils. Cedar oil contains volatile terpenes that can degrade when exposed to heat, light, and oxygen. Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, such as a cupboard or drawer. Ensure the dropper cap is tightly sealed after every use to minimize air exposure, which causes oxidation and alters the scent profile. Keep the bottle out of reach of children and pets, as ingestion or accidental contact can be harmful. The product is not a food supplement or medicine; it is intended for aromatic and topical use only. Avoid storing it in the bathroom where humidity and temperature fluctuations are common, as this can accelerate degradation. A stable, dark environment will help maintain the oil's characteristic woody and sweet notes for longer.
