- Because storax naturally contains cinnamyl alcohol (a listed EU allergen), finished cosmetic and perfume products must declare it above 0.001% (leave-on) / 0.01% (rinse-off) thresholds
- IFRA Standard for styrax/storax derivatives limits use in leave-on cosmetics; we recommend ≤ 2–4% in finished products for skin-contact formulas
- Batch allergen declaration is generated from the same GC-MS run as the COA, so figures are batch-specific and auditable
- IFRA certificate and RIFM-based documentation are available on request for perfumery customers
