Composition notes
- Key materials. Iso E Super, Hedione HC, Helvetolide, Cyclohexyl Salicylate, Grapefruit Oil (Expressed)
- What makes it distinctive. A woody built from dry, transparent materials only, so it reads as bleached wood rather than forest.
- Character. For hot weather; versatile and easy to layer.
- Concentration. 12–15%
Safety and compliance
- Status. Regulatory assessment pending. No formula-level safety assessment is documented yet, so this page does not say the formula is compliant for any use.
- IFRA Standards. The IFRA Standards Library covers 4 of its materials: Iso E Super (Restriction: 1-(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 Octahydro-2,3,8,8-tetramethyl-2-naphthalenyl) ethanone (OTNE), Amendment 49); Grapefruit Oil (Expressed) (Restriction: Grapefruit oil expressed, Amendment 49); Exaltolide (Restriction: Cyclopentadecanolide, Amendment 49); Hexyl Salicylate (Restriction: Hexyl salicylate, Amendment 49).
- Phototoxicity. Grapefruit Oil (Expressed) is phototoxic; IFRA limits phototoxic materials in products left on skin exposed to sunlight.
- Skin sensitisation. None of the EU’s long-standing named fragrance allergens is an ingredient in its own right. Natural materials carry further allergens as constituents, declared from the supplier’s data, and Regulation (EU) 2023/1545 extends the list to be labelled on products placed on the EU market from 31 July 2026.
- Product category. Limits depend on the product: fine fragrance, leave-on and rinse-off products have different IFRA categories, and each Standard sets its own figure for each.
