Limits of interpretation

The INCI list shows which ingredients are present, not how much of each. Above 1%, ingredients are listed in descending order of weight; below 1% the order is free.

It is a fragrance ingredient that EU rules require to be named on the label above set thresholds (0.001% leave-on, 0.01% rinse-off); its presence does not mean a reaction will occur.
