Safety
Safety Profile
The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) typically excludes fragrance ingredients from its review process. While approved by the FDA for food flavoring at a maximum concentration of 1 mg/kg, European classifications identify Cedrenyl Acetate as an irritant (R36/37/38), indicating potential to cause irritation to eyes, respiratory system, and skin. Furthermore, GHS Hazard Statements (H317) explicitly state it 'May cause an allergic skin reaction,' underscoring a significant sensitization risk. Recommended precautionary statements include P261, P272, P280, and P273.
