Fragrance Allergens We Disclose
Some fragrance ingredients are disclosed because a small number of people may be sensitive to them. This does not mean the ingredient is unsafe for everyone. It simply helps fragrance-sensitive customers make informed choices.
Many fragrance allergens are naturally occurring components of flowers, fruits, herbs, spices, woods, resins, and essential oils. At AfterBlooms, these materials are reviewed in the context of the finished formula, the amount used, and the intended use as a fine fragrance worn on skin.
