IFRA explained
Compliance documentation, not product registration
IFRA Standards set restrictions, prohibitions and specifications for certain fragrance materials. The applicable requirements depend on the intended use of the finished product.
IFRA does not register or approve individual perfumes and does not issue Certificates of Conformity. These are prepared by fragrance mixture suppliers for specified uses. We help coordinate and review the relevant documentation, not promise an official IFRA registration.
- 1
Intended use
The finished product’s use determines which IFRA category is relevant.
- 2
Fragrance concentration
The use level is checked against the supplier’s category-specific maximum.
- 3
Wider safety duties
IFRA documentation does not replace a CPSR or legal cosmetic compliance.
