Ingredient FAQs
-
Great question! Notes are smell descriptions whereas the ingredients refer to the raw materials that make up the perfume.
-
The European Union has had strict regulations for fragrance for many years. IFRA, the International Fragrance Association, publishes standards that include fragrance material limits on all identified fragrance allergens. There are currently 80+ restricted and prohibited allergens listed by IFRA.
MoCRA is a recent law that set up stricter standards and regulations in the United States. Perfume is now categorized as a cosmetic and as part of this law, fragrance brands are required to list all allergens in their products from the IFRA list.

Yes! IFRA has allergens such as hexyl cinnamal (component of chamomile) and geraniol (component of a rose) listed. That is to say, the list of what qualifies as an allergen is VERY restrictive and includes both natural and synthetic materials.
I use a mix a natural and sythetic raw materials (essential oils and aromachemicals aka fragrance oils). All of the listed allergens are under the IFRA thresholds.
Seeing ingredients with long technical names can be nerve-wracking but please rest assured that none of them are "bad" or "dangerous." If you're very interested in perfume, a fun way to learn more about ingredients is to Google each one I have listed - that will help you to learn what ingredients correspond to what notes or plants etc. (I am a nerd so enjoyment levels of research vary lol.)
All of this is in an effort to be transparent and empower consumers.

Oh no, sorry to hear that! Discontinue use immediately, cleanse the area, and if serious, seek medical attention. Should you have any allergic reactions, please let me know as well.
