Does rose flower wax contain allergens and what must be declared on the label?

As a natural botanical extract, rose flower wax naturally contains trace fragrance allergens such as citronellol, geraniol and linalool, which must be declared on EU cosmetic labels when they exceed the mandatory threshold (0.001% leave-on / 0.01% rinse-off).

Common AllergenPresent in Rose WaxEU Label Threshold
CitronellolYes (natural)0.001% leave-on
GeraniolYes (natural)0.001% leave-on
LinaloolYes (natural)0.001% leave-on
What we provide to make compliance easy: our Certificates of Analysis list the full GC-MS profile including these naturally occurring allergens, so your regulatory team can calculate exact declared levels. We also supply allergen summary statements on request for EU Annex III and US California AB 495 disclosures.

The good news: because the wax is a gentle natural ingredient, allergens appear at much lower levels than in rose oil or absolute — often below declaration thresholds in typical use levels. Confirm with your formulator and our COA data.
