BENZYL ALCOHOL
Benzyl Alcohol is an aromatic alcohol that conforms to the formula:
BENZYL ALCOHOL is listed in the European Commission CosIng inventory under the functional categories Preservative, Solvent, Viscosity Controlling, Perfuming, with CAS number 100-51-6 and EC number 202-859-9. CosIng records a restriction against it (III/45 and V/34), so check the corresponding Annex entry before formulating. In the free INCIDB sample it appears on 39 product labels, reaching position 3 on Eau micellaire visage & yeux à l'extrait de myrtille. It is on the EU Annex III fragrance-allergen list (Regulation (EC) 1223/2009 as amended by Regulation (EU) 2023/1545), so labelling rules apply above the regulated thresholds.
