The durability of different simulants varies. Some can last just as long as diamonds. But others will eventually scratch and lose their sparkle after a few years.

Using cold water is a much simpler and safer way to test the validity of a diamond. If you place the stone into water, a real diamond will sink to the bottom due to the density. Fake diamonds are far more likely to float or bobble around.
