Why This Score

Linalyl Acetate (present at 7.5% and 6.2%) is a well-established fragrance ingredient with a safety grade of A and B, commonly used in perfumery with a favorable safety profile.
Octahydro-tetramethyl-methano-1-naphthol comprises 7.5% of the formulation and carries an ISS score of 7.0/10 (grade A), indicating acceptable safety at this concentration level.
Tetramethyl acetyloctahydronaphthalenes is the dominant ingredient at 20.0% concentration. While graded A (ISS 6.5/10), fragrances with high concentrations of synthetic polycyclic compounds warrant standard precautions: perform a patch test before full application, avoid contact with eyes, and discontinue use if irritation occurs.

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 Scandal Pour Homme safe for daily use?+

Yes, the Grade B PSS score indicates acceptable safety for regular consumer use. However, like all fragrances, individual sensitivity varies. Start with patch testing on a small area of skin to rule out allergic reaction before applying to larger areas or wearing daily.

Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+

The two primary components are tetramethyl acetyloctahydronaphthalenes (20.0%) and an acetone derivative (17.5%). Both carry acceptable safety grades, but the high concentration of the first ingredient—a synthetic polycyclic compound—is worth noting. Avoid eye contact, and discontinue use if you experience redness, itching, or irritation.

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

The Product Safety Score (PSS) is an independent safety assessment that evaluates ingredient safety, concentration levels, and formulation stability. A Grade B (6.6/10) indicates the product meets consumer safety standards but has room for improvement compared to Grade A products. It is suitable for market use with standard precautions.

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.
