    (PDF, Acrobat Reader)

    On page 22 you will find: “Fragrance ingredients have to be considered a leading cause of contact allergy. Further, SCCNFP is of the opinion that information should be provided to consumers about the known presence in cosmetic products of fragrance ingredients with a well-recognised potential to cause contact allergy. It is up to the legislator to consider the best way to provide the information to the consumers".

    SCCNFP: Scientific Committee on Cosmetic and Non-Food-Products intended for Consumers.

  • SCCNFP: Evaluation and opinion on: Methyldibromo glutaronitrile,
