Why This Score

AMBROXAN (15.0%) is a well-established synthetic fragrance ingredient with a strong safety grade (A) and high ingredient safety score (7.0/10), commonly used in perfumery.
Majority of top ingredients carry grade A or A- safety ratings, indicating established safety profiles in cosmetic formulations at their respective concentrations.
The fourth-ranked ingredient (ETHANONE derivative, 8.8%) carries a moderate grade with an ISS of 6.6/10—slightly lower than peers. As with all fragrances, patch testing on a small skin area before full application is recommended, especially for sensitive skin.

Scores are calculated by HumanSafe™ — an independent third-party platform — using peer-reviewed toxicology sources, regulatory databases, and HumanSafe's Mood Architecture™.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is En Passant safe for daily use?+

En Passant's Grade B safety score and predominantly A-rated ingredients support regular use for most consumers. However, daily use tolerance varies by individual skin sensitivity and concentration sensitivity. Start with occasional application and monitor for any irritation or allergic response over the first few weeks.

Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+

The formulation is dominated by AMBROXAN and synthetic compounds with established safety records. One ingredient (the ETHANONE derivative) has a moderate safety grade rather than A-level, which is why a patch test is prudent. If you have a history of fragrance sensitivities, consult a dermatologist before use.

What does a PSS of 6.6/10 (Grade B) mean?+

PSS (Product Safety Score) reflects the overall safety profile based on ingredient concentrations and individual safety grades. A Grade B (6.6/10) indicates good safety relative to industry standards—above baseline but not in the highest tier. It suggests En Passant is safe for typical use when applied as directed, though not risk-free for all users.

The HumanSafe™ Difference

Most safety tools rate ingredients in isolation — one score regardless of concentration, context, or how the product is used. We assess at actual use concentration.
