It lists Parfum and 1 fragrance allergen.

  • Parfum
  • Limonene

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, St Ives Blemish Control Scrub Apricot is not fragrance-free. It lists Parfum and 1 fragrance allergen.

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.
