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 3 of its materials: Linalool (Specification: Linalool, Amendment 38); Coumarin (Restriction: Coumarin, Amendment 49); Vetiveryl Acetate (Restriction: Acetylated Vetiver oil, Amendment 49).
- Skin sensitisation. EU-labelled fragrance allergens present as ingredients: Coumarin, Linalool. 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.
