How Long Does Aftershave Last Before Going Off?

If you have fragrances such as aftershave, EDT, EDP and cologne, you’ve probably thought at some point, how long does it last in the bottled once opened, and does it go off?

If you check the bottom of any bottle of any bottle of aftershave you’ll see that there’s an open jar sign indicating how long the fragrance should last before it expires. This is usually 24m or 36m, meaning, 24 months and 36 months respectively.
