Frequently Asked Questions
Is Lemongrass & Vetiver safe for daily use?+
For most users with non-sensitive skin, daily use is generally acceptable given the Grade B PSS rating. However, eau de parfum products are concentrated, so apply sparingly (typically 3–4 sprays) and avoid direct application to broken skin or sensitive areas. If you experience irritation, redness, or allergic reaction, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+
The two largest components—tetramethyl acetyloctahydronaphthalenes (50%) and an octahydro ketone compound (45%)—are synthetic fragrance molecules with moderate safety profiles. While their individual ISS scores are acceptable, their combined concentration means sensitive individuals should patch test first. Citronellol and the dimethyl-octen-2-ol components are lower-risk.
What does a PSS of 6.9/10 (Grade B) mean?+
PSS (Product Safety Score) is an independent safety assessment on a 10-point scale. A Grade B score of 6.9 indicates the product meets safety standards for general use but carries moderate rather than minimal concern. It is not unsafe, but warrants awareness and cautious use—especially for first-time users, those with fragrance sensitivities, or individuals with reactive skin conditions.
