If a product lists Linalool, its fragrance-free answer is No. Nothing else changes.

What it does

Linalool occurs naturally in lavender, coriander and many other plants, and in most perfume blends. Like Limonene it must be named on EU labels above a small threshold.

It counts as fragrance, so a product that lists it is not fragrance-free.
