Scout's take
BANNED in EU cosmetics since March 2022 as a CMR (Carcinogen / Mutagen / Reproductive toxin, Category 1B) under EU Regulation 2021/1902. Animal studies showed reproductive toxicity. Still legal and used in US-market designer fragrances. Single most concerning ingredient in any modern leave-on cosmetic.
