Frequently Asked Questions
Is Amber & Lavander safe for daily use?+
For most adults, yes—the Grade B rating indicates moderate-to-good safety margins. However, eau de parfum formulas are concentrated products, so daily use on sensitive skin or around broken skin should be approached cautiously. If you experience irritation, reduce frequency or discontinue use.
Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+
The dominant ingredient, Tetramethyl Acetyloctahydronaphthalenes (15.0%), is the primary consideration. While approved in cosmetics, this polycyclic compound is present at a notable level. Additionally, Linalool and Linalyl Acetate can trigger contact sensitization in individuals with fragrance allergies—perform a patch test on the inner arm 24–48 hours before use if you have known sensitivities.
What does a PSS of 6.7/10 (Grade B) mean?+
PSS (Product Safety Score) is an independent assessment of overall fragrance safety. A Grade B rating (6.7/10) indicates the product meets safety standards but carries moderate considerations—not the highest tier, but acceptable for general consumers. It reflects a balance of ingredient concentrations and individual safety data rather than a pass/fail verdict.
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.
