Why This Score

Ethylene Brassylate (40% concentration) scores a perfect 10.0/10 on ingredient safety, indicating excellent dermal compatibility and low sensitization risk.
Phenethyl Alcohol (2.5%) is a naturally-derived fragrance component with a strong safety profile (ISS 6.0/10) commonly used in cosmetics without major adverse effects.
Tetramethyl Acetyloctahydronaphthalenes comprise 50% of the formula; while rated Grade A (ISS 6.5/10), this high concentration of a synthetic fragrance compound warrants patch testing before extended use, especially for individuals with sensitive or reactive 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 The Coveted Duchess Rose safe for daily use?+

The product scores Grade A on the Product Safety Scale, suggesting it is suitable for daily use for most consumers. However, because it is an Eau de Parfum (higher fragrance concentration than EDT), some individuals may experience irritation or sensitization with repeated daily application. If you have sensitive skin or a history of fragrance reactions, start with occasional use and monitor for any adverse effects.

Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+

The primary ingredient (50%) is tetramethyl acetyloctahydronaphthalenes, a synthetic fragrance compound rated Grade A but present in high concentration. There are no known severe allergens or banned substances in the formula. However, fragrance ingredients can trigger reactions in sensitive individuals, so a patch test on a small area of skin is recommended before full-face or body application.

What does a PSS of 8.1/10 (Grade A) mean?+

The Product Safety Scale (PSS) is an independent safety assessment that rates products on dermal compatibility, ingredient safety, and overall risk profile. A Grade A score of 8.1/10 indicates the product meets high safety standards and is unlikely to cause harm under normal use conditions. This does not mean zero risk—all cosmetics carry individual variation in tolerance—but it reflects a favorable safety profile based on ingredient data.

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.
