Abstract

The aim of the research was to analyse fragrance allergens in selected alcohol-based perfumery products with the application of gas chromatography. Toilet waters and scented waters were analysed. Samples of the selected perfumery products were tested for the presence of typical allergens, such as linalool, citral, citronellol, geraniol, eugenol and alpha-isomethyl ionone, in the so-called fragrance concentrate. The obtained results showed that each of the products contained at least a few of the above-mentioned allergens. Nevertheless, the majority of the analysed products satisfied the recommendations of the Scientific Committee on Cosmetic Products and Non-food Products valid for cosmetics intended to remain on the skin for some time.
