Linalool

Mid risk

FunctionFragrance Allergen

What it is — Linalool (INCI: Linalool) is a fragrance component.

What it does — It is commonly used as a common floral fragrance terpene, and it is an EU-listed contact allergen.

Typical use — It is present for scent, or occurs naturally within fragrant plant ingredients. Under EU rules, listed fragrance allergens must be declared on the label above set thresholds.

Who it suits / good to know — Fragrance components are among the more common triggers for sensitive skin. If you are fragrance-sensitive or reactive, patch-testing is sensible. Fragrance-free alternatives exist if scent is a known trigger for you.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it mid risk in its EWG-style, ingredient-by-ingredient review. This reflects the ingredient in general and is not medical advice; patch-test before wider use if your skin is reactive.
