All 4 declare fragrance (100%) and 1 contains denatured alcohol (ALCOHOL DENAT., 25%). None contains parabens or silicones.
Dry shampoo and balsam
A dry shampoo is a powder-and-propellant product with little in common with a liquid shampoo, so expect starches and gases instead of SODIUM LAURETH SULFATE. 'Balsam' is the Scandinavian word for conditioner, which explains the cationic GUAR HYDROXYPROPYLTRIMONIUM CHLORIDE in that product.
