What are CAREFREE FRAGRANCES?

Here at AFI, our goal is to create quality fragrances that bring real value to your products through the connection that consumers have with scent. Part of this goal is ensuring our fragrances not only smell good but also perform well in every way possible. It’s one thing to create fragrances that smell good, but an entirely different ball game to do so in a way that suits the needs of every individual consumer.

Nowadays, fragrance houses face a great deal of scrutiny, as they haven’t always been the clearest about the practices and raw materials the industry uses. Numerous chemicals used to create fragrances have a reputation for causing potential harm to our bodies, whether that reputation is true or not. The International Fragrance Association, or IFRA, works alongside the Research Institute for Fragrance Materials to create guidelines for safe fragrance formulation and usage, and every fragrance we make follows those guidelines.

Still, we know some of our customers have specific ingredient and labeling requirements, so we created a line of fragrances designed to meet an even stricter set of criteria while still performing exceptionally.

So, what sets CAREFREE Fragrances apart?

Here at AFI, we already make many fragrances that are phthalate free. Phthalates, which may cause harm to the endocrine system, are just one of many different ingredients we can formulate fragrances without for your needs. With CAREFREE Fragrances, we took that commitment further to create a line that checks every box for makers with the strictest standards.

Every CAREFREE Fragrance is Prop 65 compliant, so no California Prop 65 warning is required. The line is phthalate free and contains no known or suspected CMRs, meaning no carcinogens, mutagens, or reproductive toxins. You also won’t find any Corrosive, Health Hazard, or Skull & Crossbones pictograms on their safety data sheets.

And because they’re built to be versatile, CAREFREE Fragrances can be used at over 1% in IFRA Category 5C (hand creams), over 3% in Category 9 (rinse-off products such as soaps and body washes), and over 3% in Category 12 (non-skin-contact products such as candles and wax melts).

Like we said, it’s one thing to make a fragrance smell good; it’s another to make sure it performs well and falls into our standards for our line of CAREFREE Fragrances. That’s why we worked closely with our team of highly skilled chemists and perfumers to create some truly wonderful scents for your line.

We can confidently say our CAREFREE Fragrances smell wonderful and we’re so excited for you to try them out in your line of clean formulated products!
