IFRA Code of Practice Notification of the 49th Amendment to the IFRA Code of Practice
IFRA Critical Effect:
Sensitization
IFRA Other Specification:
IFRA fragrance material specification:
Linalool and natural products known to be rich in linalool, such as bois de rose, coriander or ho wood oil, should only be used when the level of peroxides is kept to the lowest practical level. It is recommended to add antioxidants at the time of production of the raw material. The addition of 0.1% BHT or alpha-tocopherol for example has shown great efficiency. The maximum peroxide level for products in use should be 20 mmol/l.
maximum skin levels for fine fragrances:
0.3100 % and are based on the assumption that the fragrance mixture is used at 20% in a consumer product (IFRA Use Level Survey).(IFRA, 2004)
Recommendation for laevo-linalool usage levels up to:
10.0000 % in the fragrance concentrate.
use level in formulae for use in cosmetics:
2.8600 %
Dermal Systemic Exposure in Cosmetic Products:
0.0720 mg/kg/day (IFRA, 2004)
Recommendation for laevo-linalool flavor usage levels up to:
40.0000 ppm in the finished product.
