About

LINALYL PHENYLACETATE is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulation. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

Linalyl Phenylacetate is an ester of linalool, classified as a fragrance allergen under EU Regulation 1223/2009 Annex III. It must be declared in the ingredient list when exceeding 0.001% in leave-on products. Like other linalool derivatives, it may oxidize over time, forming potentially more sensitizing degradation products.
