No. No, Herbal Essences Moisture-Balancing Shampoo is not fragrance-free.
It lists Fragrance.
- Fragrance
Why
Fragrance-free means no perfume in the ingredient list. On a label perfume shows up as Parfum or Fragrance, as essential oils, and often as named allergens like Limonene and Linalool that brands have to declare in the EU.
No, Herbal Essences Moisture-Balancing Shampoo is not fragrance-free. It lists Fragrance.
This is not a safety warning. Perfume suits most people, but if your skin reacts or you are patch testing, this is the line you came for.
