Moderate

Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.

A dimethyl cyclohexene carbaldehyde with multiple hazard classifications including skin sensitisation and acute toxicity.

This compound carries a notably long list of hazard statements: H317 (sensitisation), H302 (oral toxicity), H315/H319 (skin/eye irritation), and H411/H412 (aquatic toxicity). Its use in cosmetic products requires careful safety evaluation under Regulation 1223/2009. The multiple hazard profile is unusual for a fragrance material and suggests moderate regulatory concern.
