Nivea hand cream Q10 anti-age

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.

We can't tell if Nivea hand cream Q10 anti-age is fragrance-free. The label claims fragrance-free, but the ingredient list on file shows Linalool, Citronellol, Hexyl Cinnamal and 3 more. One of them is out of date, and we don't guess. We show both pieces of evidence rather than pick a side; the fix is a fresh photo of the ingredient list.

Benzyl Alcohol is a preservative that can also carry scent; on its own it does not make a product fragranced.

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.
