Fragrance materials and perfumery ingredients are perfumes.
Perfumes are neither cosmetics nor medicines. They should never be applied to the skin or even come into indirect contact with it. Handling perfumes requires special care and the use of personal protective equipment, including but not limited to safety glasses, long clothing, and gloves.
We will not publish or provide any information or statement that directly or indirectly justify, support, suggest, or promote the harmful use or particular safety of one perfume over another. In particular, we do not produce any regulatory documents or certificates unless required to do so by law in our jurisdiction. In Quebec, Canada, as these documents have a clearly defined legal weight and purpose, this means only to transporters of bulk quantities and to accredited industrial perfume production labs operating under the supervision of a chemist, member of the Order of chemists of Quebec. If you wish to sell your perfumed creations, you absolutely must have them produced in such a laboratory. We do offer project management services for such commercial perfume production from a formula you created yourself. If that is of interest to you, start here to qualify.
The greatest danger in perfumery is ignorance. We will fiercely defend everyone's freedom to learn about, understand, and access perfume, its culture, practice, and knowledge. We will fight against any form of gatekeeping, control, or censorship concerning the olfactory arts and sciences.
