Why has perfume turned cloudy?

Perfume can turn cloudy due to a few reasons, primarily involving the interaction of its ingredients. Changes in temperature, exposure to light, or the presence of certain natural oils can cause the fragrance components to separate or precipitate, resulting in a cloudy appearance. Additionally, the presence of alcohol and water in the formula can lead to cloudiness if they do not mix well. While cloudiness doesn’t necessarily mean the perfume is spoiled, it may indicate a change in its stability or quality.
