P-Cresyl Benzoate is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Its specific function may vary between products. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

p-Cresyl benzoate is an aromatic ester used primarily as a fragrance ingredient. While not as restrictively classified as some other p-cresyl derivatives, it has been subject to SCCS review for its skin sensitization potential. EU IFRA guidelines classify it as requiring careful handling in formulations, and it must be disclosed as a fragrance allergen when present above the regulatory threshold in cosmetic products placed on the EU market.
