Caveat The ethical sourcing and fair compensation language is entirely self declared with no named suppliers, audits or certification, and there is no environmental disclosure of any kind.
Fragrance Disclosure Markets 'clean' fragrance: natural/organic ingredients plus responsibly produced safe synthetics; paraben-free and phthalate-free (brand-stated). Full fragrance ingredient list not independently verified.
Clean Definition Free of parabens, phthalates, formaldehyde, known carcinogens and known endocrine disruptors; no full banned ingredient list is published.
Controversies No controversy found; the brand wound down its CBD line, citing merchant processing and regulatory friction, and pivoted to fine fragrance.
Third-Party Tested Only dermatologist tested is claimed; no certificates of analysis, independent lab results or certifying body published, including for the former CBD products.
