Why This Score

Vanilla compounds (Vanillin and Ethyl Vanillin) comprise 75% of the formula at grade A and B safety levels, providing the core fragrance profile with established safety data.
Ambroxan (7.5%) is included at ISS 7.0/10 grade A, a commonly used synthetic fragrance fixative with a favorable safety profile in eau de parfum concentrations.
High vanilla compound concentration (75% combined) may cause sensitivity in individuals with fragrance sensitivities or contact dermatitis. Patch testing before regular use is recommended 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 Vanilla 28 safe for daily use?+

For most consumers, daily use of Vanilla 28 is acceptable given its Grade B PSS rating. However, daily fragrance use should follow normal application practices (spray from distance, avoid direct skin contact on sensitive areas). Individuals with a history of fragrance allergies or sensitive skin should perform a patch test on a small area 24–48 hours before regular use.

Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+

The primary consideration is the high combined concentration of Vanillin and Ethyl Vanillin (75% total). While both are grade A/B rated, this level may trigger contact dermatitis or fragrance sensitivity in susceptible individuals. Ambroxan is a standard fragrance ingredient with good safety data. If you have known vanilla extract allergies or fragrance sensitivities, consult a dermatologist before use.

What does a PSS of 6.4/10 (Grade B) mean?+

The Product Safety Score (PSS) of 6.4/10 with Grade B indicates moderate safety performance. This grade reflects the overall safety profile based on ingredient concentrations and individual safety scores. A Grade B product is considered acceptable for consumer use under normal conditions but carries slightly more risk than Grade A products and may warrant precautions for sensitive populations.

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.
