Fragrance & Perfume
Often the chemicals used in perfumes and fragrance are synthetic compounds and many are known skin sensitizers and irritants.
On the majority of cosmetic and skincare product labels, the ingredients are not specified separately.
Common irritants often labeled simply as “Fragrance” or “Perfume” include:
- Wood tars
- Benzyl salicylate
- Musk ambrette
- Sandalwood oil
- Cinnamic alcohol
- Eugenol
- Benzyl alcohol
- Oak moss
Check the label of any of your existing products to see if they contain a perfume, parfum or fragrance.
