About

A cyclic aldehyde fragrance material with acute oral toxicity and aquatic toxicity concerns.

This trimethylcyclohexene carbaldehyde carries H302 (acute oral toxicity) and H411 (aquatic toxicity) classifications. It is not specifically listed in EU cosmetic Annexes, meaning formulators must conduct their own safety assessments per Regulation 1223/2009. The aldehyde functional group typically contributes to both fragrance character and potential skin reactivity.
