About
Cassie (sweet acacia) flower wax — a botanical wax from acacia blossoms used to structure balms and lend a soft floral note. Fragrance allergens inside.
Acacia farnesiana flower cera is a wax recovered from the concrete of sweet acacia (cassie) blossoms, a natural by-product of perfumery processing. It is composed of long-chain plant waxes along with residual aromatic constituents — benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, farnesol, and related molecules that include several EU-listed fragrance allergens. In cosmetics it functions as a structuring/film-forming wax at 1-10% in balms, lip products and sticks, and provides a soft, floral sensorial. EU CosIng lists it without restriction. No ingredient-specific CIR monograph.
