Safety Profile
The maximum recommended usage level for this oil in fragrance concentrates is up to 2.0%. While specific dermal irritancy data for the oil itself is not widely available, the wood of the Dacrydium genus has been associated with nose, eye, and throat irritation, suggesting a potential for sensitivity upon exposure.
