As for the difference? Amarula is sweet fruity cream while Baileys is chocolaty cream. One is made from the fruit a Marula (Amarula) while the is made from Aged Irish Whiskey Fresh Irish cream, coco and vanilla (baileys).

Does Bailey's Irish Cream go bad or expire? Generally as long as you don't subject it to temperature extremes it will last well beyond the official 2 year "best taste before" date.

How should I store cream liqueurs? It is recommended that cream liqueurs be stored in a cool place, but refrigeration is not necessary. Manufacturers of cream liqueurs point to the effective preservative qualities of alcohol as the reason that refrigeration is not required.

If you're having trouble discerning between liquor that's been distilled versus booze that's been processed through timed fermentation, Montagano suggests a helpful blanket rule: If your booze is wine-based, or has under 15% alcohol, it's worth keeping in the fridge.

However, some fruit liqueurs and a couple of aperitivi—notably including the popular Aperol—are below 15% alcohol by volume, which means they have the potential to spoil more easily at room temperature (though they're still likely to last quite a while).
