<p>Under Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 on cosmetic products (“the Cosmetics Regulation”)
containers or packaging of cosmetic products (or on an enclosed or attached documentation)
must set out a list of ingredients, including perfume and aromatic compositions and
their raw materials. These perfume and aromatic compositions must be referred to as
‘parfum’ or ‘aroma’. Annex III of the Cosmetic Products Regulation requires that the
use of certain substances is subject to restriction. The presence of a substance listed
in Annex III must be indicated in a product’s list of ingredients, in addition to
the words parfum or aroma. At the moment, 26 fragrance allergens are listed in in
this Annex. The labelling must be on the carton, or if there is no outer packaging,
then on the container. If the perfume or fragrance is small and difficult to label,
the ingredient list may be on a leaflet provided with the product, or displayed close
to where the product is offered for sale.</p>
