Frequently Asked Questions
Is Tobacco Mandarin safe for daily use?+
Yes, for most people, though Grade B safety means it sits in the moderate range rather than the highest tier. Daily application to pulse points is generally acceptable. However, individuals with sensitive skin or fragrance sensitivities should perform a patch test first and ensure adequate ventilation in enclosed spaces.
Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+
The main ingredient to be aware of is tetramethyl acetyloctahydronaphthalenes, which makes up 30% of the formula and has an ISS score of 6.5/10. While not flagged as dangerous, it is a synthetic compound with less extensive safety data than some alternatives. Diethyl phthalate is also present at 30%, though it scores well (8.0/10). Those avoiding phthalates should note this ingredient's presence.
What does a PSS of 6.9/10 (Grade B) mean?+
The Product Safety Score (PSS) is an independent assessment of overall safety based on ingredient profiles and concentration levels. A Grade B score indicates the product meets safety standards for cosmetic use but is not in the highest safety category (Grade A). It suggests the fragrance is suitable for general consumer use with standard precautions like patch testing and proper ventilation.
