Why This Score

✔Ethylene Brassylate (30.0%) earns a perfect ISS 10.0/10 safety score and forms the fragrance base with excellent dermal tolerance.
✔Nerolidol Isomers (5.0%) score 8.0/10 on the ISS scale and are well-established fragrance ingredients with low sensitization risk.
⚠Tetramethyl Acetyloctahydronaphthalenes comprise 15.0% of the formula with an ISS score of 6.5/10; while still Grade A, persons with fragrance sensitivities should perform a patch test before regular use.

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 Candy Rose safe for daily use?+

Candy Rose's Grade A PSS score suggests it is safe for routine daily application by most users. However, because it contains 15% Tetramethyl Acetyloctahydronaphthalenes (ISS 6.5/10), individuals with known fragrance sensitivities or reactive skin should perform a 24–48 hour patch test on the inner arm or behind the ear before committing to daily wear.

Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+

All five major ingredients carry Grade A safety ratings. The ingredient of note is Tetramethyl Acetyloctahydronaphthalenes at 15% concentration, which has a moderate (but acceptable) ISS score of 6.5/10. This polycyclic compound is used widely in fragrances but may trigger sensitivity in a small subset of users. If you have a documented fragrance allergy, consult a dermatologist before use.

What does a PSS of 8.0/10 (Grade A) mean?+

The PSS (Product Safety Score) is an independent safety assessment that evaluates a fragrance's ingredient safety profile and concentration risks. A Grade A at 8.0/10 indicates that Candy Rose meets high safety standards with acceptable levels of known sensitizers and irritants. This does not mean zero risk—individual reactions vary—but it reflects a well-formulated product with documented ingredient safety data.
