Rose Otto (Rosa damascena) naturally contains 6 substances regulated under EU 2023/1545: Citronellol (typically 30–50%); Geraniol (typically 15–25%); Linalool (typically 1–3%); Eugenol (typically 0–2%); Farnesol (typically 0–2%); Citral (typically 0.1–1%). Exact values vary by harvest and producer — confirm with a GC/MS report or IFRA certificate.
The oil itself is declared under its INCI name (ROSA DAMASCENA FLOWER OIL). Additionally, each regulated constituent that exceeds 0.100% (leave-on) or 1.00% (rinse-off) of the finished product must be listed separately — e.g. "linalool". Because many constituents run high, even small doses of Rose Otto usually trigger declarations.
It depends on the constituent with the highest typical level. For example, Citronellol, Rose Otto's most abundant regulated allergen (up to 50%), crosses the 0.001% leave-on threshold once the oil itself exceeds ~0.00% of the formula.
