CakePHP cookie expiration not working

Using AppController in CakePHP I set the following cookie settings:

function beforeFilter() {
    $this->Cookie->name = 'Vinbeo';
    $this->Cookie->time = '7 Days';
}

I'm writing two cookies but only the first gets the right expiration time and the other expires when the browser is closed.

I'm using UsersController with this model:

$this->Cookie->write('name',$name);

Try this:

$this->Cookie->write('first_cookie', 'cookie1', false, '7 Days');
$this->Cookie->write('second_cookie', 'cookie2', false, '3 Days');

From here: The fourth parameter of write determines the expiry date. I think when you set properties like the way you are doing it now in the beforeFilter(), it does it only for the one cookie. Need to double check this though.
