Fragrances in cosmetics:

Synthetic Options and Their Importance


Fragrances in cosmetics play a key role in the perception of a product. They give creams, shower gels and perfumes a unique note, but can also irritate sensitive skin.


While essential oils are often known for their naturalness, synthetic fragrances offer durable and versatile alternatives.

What are synthetic fragrances?

Synthetic fragrances are chemically produced and imitate or enhance natural scents. They offer a wider range of scents and are often more stable, which leads to a longer shelf life of cosmetic products. Examples include floral, woody or oriental scents, which in synthetic form can reflect their natural counterparts.


Benefits of Synthetic Fragrances

Synthetic fragrances not only offer greater variety, but are also more cost-effective and sustainable to produce. Since they are often made from recyclable materials, they help reduce the ecological footprint.


Allergy Potential of Synthetic Fragrances

One disadvantage of synthetic fragrances is their potential to cause skin irritation or allergies. The European Union has strict regulations for labeling known allergens in fragrances. Consumers with sensitive skin should use hypoallergenic products.
