Why This Score

AMBROXAN (20.0%) provides the fragrance's woody base with a strong safety profile (ISS 7.0/10, Grade A), well-established in cosmetic formulations.
VANILLIN (5.0%) is a common, naturally-derived fragrance ingredient with a solid safety rating (ISS 6.0/10, Grade A) and minimal sensitization risk at this concentration.
Contains polycyclic fragrance compounds (tetramethyl acetyloctahydronaphthalenes at 15.0%) that are permitted in cosmetics but warrant patch testing if you have sensitive skin or a history of fragrance sensitivities.

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 Tobacco Oud safe for daily use?+

For most consumers, yes. The PSS Grade B score indicates good overall safety for a fragrance product. However, daily use on sensitive skin or if you have a history of fragrance allergies should be preceded by a 24–48 hour patch test on a small area (inner wrist or behind the ear). Discontinue use immediately if irritation occurs.

Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+

The primary concern is the concentration of synthetic polycyclic compounds (tetramethyl acetyloctahydronaphthalenes at 15.0%), which are permitted but can occasionally trigger sensitivities in fragrance-prone individuals. VANILLIN and AMBROXAN are well-tolerated. If you know you react to woody or spicy fragrances, this product may not be ideal for you.

What does a PSS of 6.7/10 (Grade B) mean?+

The PSS (Product Safety Score) is an independent assessment of overall safety based on ingredient profiles and concentrations. A Grade B indicates the product meets safety standards and poses low to moderate risk for most users, but is not in the highest tier. It is suitable for typical consumers; however, individuals with sensitive skin or fragrance allergies should exercise caution.

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.
