Methyl-N—methylanthranilate, Oranger Crystals and Tagetes Oil (and its absolute). Further clarification was also established on the application scope of all phototoxicity standards affecting numerous other chemicals and essential oils (see Figure 1). • Other standards were clarified for Acetylated Vetiver Oil, which has been renamed and material specification information removed. Cyclamen Aldehyde has been given a material specification for presence of Cyclamen Alcohol. Finally, Furfuryl Alcohol, which is present in Cade Oil, has also been determined to be present in certain other extracts, so the standard was clarified accordingly. • Expanded standards have been issued for Anisyl Alcohol, Massoia Lactone and Methyl Ionone, mixed isomers, to cover additionally identified CAS numbers for these chemicals. Updates to the IFRA RIFM QRA Information Booklet (Version 7.0) include information on the 48th amendment and the implementation timeline, definition of the IFRA product categories, guidance on preparing IFRA certificates and a new definition for the scope of use of the QRA for fragrance ingredients.

Ask your fragrance supplier to provide you with an IFRA 48th certificate of conformity to confirm the safe use level of fragrances within your finished product formulations. If usage levels are above the recommended use levels for your product category, you have two options: reduce use level to the maximum determined safe use level or contact your fragrance supplier to request that the fragrance blend be modified to meet your requirements. Product safety represents a partnership between the product manufacturer and its fragrance developer. The fragrance industry goes far beyond other ingredient categories in investing time and robust scientific testing to ensure manufacturers have comprehensive standards for the safe use of fragrance formulations. This continuing effort is critically important to your success; a strategically designed, safe, high-performing fragrance is a valuable brand asset that drives repeat consumer purchase of your product.
