Does the flower in the bottle affect the quality of the oil? Will it rot or mold?

I haven't noticed mold per say, but it does seem to deteriorate over time. This oil will also solidify when it's too cold, but becomes liquid again when it warms up. In the winter I place it in hot water.

I am not a chemist so I can not say. I can say that the smell is disgusting which to me speaks volumes. I am allergic to mold and tried in on my feet and couldn't stop the itching even after washing my feet over and over. My previous monoi did not have the same results. Another thought... what do you do with black flowers.... put them in something you put on your body... I think ..not. I should have had those thoughts before use.

I have not had flowers rot nor mold. I have no itching and the oil feels and smells exactly the same as the day that I bought it. I use it all over my body (except my face) and whatever little traces are left on my hands go on the ends of my long, soft, curly hair. I love this oil. I use the Natural coco coconut.

I have used Monei Tiare often. I have never seen it rot or mold. Like any oil you can keep it in the cold. I live in the South Florida area, therefore I keep it in the refrigerator! Hope this will help you out!. Kiki

Generally as long as the product doesn't separate, turn color or change smell it's good. A bottle lasts several years for me and I've never had one "go bad."

I have no idea. I have had my bottle for about 3 months and it still is in excellent condition. Love this oil. Keeps my skin looking very young. Sharon

no, I had nothing like that in my bottle. The oil is smooth and nothing is floating. It has an organic, kind of nutty smell to it. I love this product. Maybe you got a bad batch? If there is such a thing. Perhaps you should return for a replacement? Not sure.

I'm sorry, but I don't how long hemp oil will stay fresh. What I can say is that the product that I use hasn't become milky or opaque, or started smelling odd, so I assume that it hasn't become rancid. I do keep mine in a cool dark place, perhaps that helps to extend it's life. Again, sorry I couldn't be of more help.

This was the first time I had bought neem oil so I'm not sure what the consistency should be, but mine is thick as well. I think that for whatever reason this is the consistency of neem oil. I'm sure you could put the bottle in hot water to liquefy it.

This is most likely a result of the oil being exposed to cool conditions...probably the best thing to do is leave it in a warmer place for a while and shake the bottle up every now and then. If that doesn't work, try looking it up online to figure out any other natural ways to de-crystallize it.

HI! I premix this with Grape seed and e oils so I am not aware of a shelf life...I will say after about three months the oils can become cloudy but again mine are mixed! The smell is much less potent with the Pure VS. the cooking oil.Hope this helps! I use it in EVERYTHING! and LOVE THIS PRODUCT!

The bottle we got to try has a oily smell but not particularly a fish smell. Mixing it with flavored yogurt is how I use it.Keep it refrigerated, I suspect it could get rancid in heat.

Just like any other vegetable oil. Best to keep it in a cool and dark area. Will rancid after a few months, you will know when it happens by the smell.

No, it doesn't. The oil will run down the bottle and could leave an orange ring/tint on the counter though, so make sure you wipe the bottle and store it in a cool dark place like a cabinet.

Yes, but very mild and it's gone once it dries on the skin. You would notice it most when pouring from the bottle. It's far less fragrant than tea tree oil or rubbing alcohol.

I've only used it every other day for a couple months, but so far no problems with a variety of oils- some mixes, including "sweet orange" essential oil. It's basically just a little plastic well with a metal plate at the bottom, so I can't imagine there would be any problems.

I try not to use herbs in plastic bottles. That's what I was impressed with this black seed oil. The fact it came in glass & the amber colored bottles. If you decide to use plastic make sure it BP free. Not sure if this answered your question, I hope it helped you.

The oil gets hard at the top of the bottle. Neem oil does not stay liquid. I use a table knife to take it out and add it to warm water.

It does have a weird smell to it. It's like any oil, if left out for a long time, it becomes rancid. Check the date it was bottled and if it's within a month, then it's still good. But I would probably keep in fridge if you don't use it quickly.

I personally love the smell of PastTense. Have had mine for a long time and never noticed it getting an "off" smell. Not sure if oils can go bad either. I'd suggest emailing or calling DoTERRA directly and asking them to be sure. I've always gotten quality products from them.
