About
Dimethylcyclohexenyl Tert-butyl Ketone is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.
DIMETHYLCYCLOHEXENYL TERT-BUTYL KETONE is a cyclohexenyl ketone fragrance with skin sensitization warnings (H315, H317). It is not currently listed in EU cosmetic Annexes, meaning it is permitted without a specific concentration cap. However, the presence of two skin sensitization hazard statements warrants caution and limits its suitability for sensitive-skin formulations.
Known concerns
- Skin sensitizer (H315, H317) — may cause allergic contact dermatitis
- Not reviewed by SCCS for fragrance allergen safety
