IFRA Notes: The International Fragrance Association publishes safe use guidelines for aromatic materials including essential oils. Fennel contains estragole with sweet fennel containing around 1/2 the estragole content of bitter fennel. Estragole is a naturally occurring aroma chemical subject to safe use limits and as such, it is subject to use restrictions. IFRA safe-use guidelines vary depending on the type of product being made. There are 12 main IFRA categories with some having sub-categories. If formulating skincare with Fennel oil, we recommend checking your product category against IFRA data and the oil C of A to ensure compliance. Please note, as IFRA guidelines and product category descriptors do change from time to time, it’s best to ensure you are using the most up-to-date information when formulating.
