Phenylpropanol

A fragrance ingredient and preservative booster used in very small amounts to provide a subtle floral aroma or support formula preservation. It is one of many aromatic compounds and uncommon as a sole contact allergen, though fragrance-sensitive individuals should be aware it is present.

A verdict is a reading of the published evidence, never a guarantee for your skin: any ingredient can irritate someone, so patch test new products and see a professional if you react.
