About

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

This branched aromatic alcohol serves as a fragrance ingredient and is classified under EU CLP regulations with H361f (suspected reproductive toxicity) and H411/H412 (aquatic toxicity).
