About JASMINUM GRANDIFLORUM FLOWER EXTRACT
Precious jasmine flower extract — beautifully fragrant and moisturizing, but it's a recognized skin allergen with EU concentration restrictions.
Detailed Analysis
Jasminum Grandiflorum Flower Extract (jasmine absolute) is a prized fragrance and conditioning ingredient from Jasminum grandiflorum (Oleaceae). EU Annex III/357 restricts it — labeling required above 0.001% in leave-on and 0.01% in rinse-off products. The SCCS classifies it as an established human contact allergen due to naturally occurring sensitizers: benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, linalool, eugenol, and geraniol. IFRA limits it to ~0.7% in leave-on products. Despite allergenicity, it provides genuine moisturizing and skin-conditioning benefits.
