What is it, what should you do?
A synthetic component used in perfumes and scented products to give a floral fragrance. Because possible risks related to reproductive health emerged in animal studies, the EU banned this substance in cosmetic products from 2022. Its presence on a label indicates a formula that does not meet current EU standards; avoiding it is a reasonable choice especially during pregnancy.
