Technical Specification

Technical Notes

High thymol content — strict use-level control needed.

Regulatory Note

Essential oils are cosmetic ingredients but are not low-risk by default. Declare the 26 EU-listed fragrance allergens above 0.001% in leave-on and 0.01% in rinse-off products, observe IFRA use limits, and treat expressed citrus oils as potentially phototoxic unless they are furocoumarin-reduced. Supply the GC-MS profile, allergen statement and IFRA certificate to your safety assessor.

Supplier diligence required: Fragrance allergen, phototoxicity, sensitization and use-level review essential.

Sold as a cosmetic raw material for professional formulation. A published INCI name does not by itself authorise use: the buyer is responsible for confirming permitted status, maximum concentration, restrictions by product type, labelling and claim rules in every market the finished product is sold in. In India, cosmetics fall under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act 1940 and the Cosmetics Rules 2020 administered by CDSCO, with BIS standards (including IS 4707 Part 2) listing restricted substances. The EU applies Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 and its Annexes; the United States applies the FD&C Act as amended by MoCRA; Korea, Japan and China operate their own positive lists and functional-cosmetic frameworks. Every finished product needs its own safety assessment.
