Synthetic perfumes are used by millions every day, yet few people realize that many fragrances contain hormone-disrupting and toxic chemicals. In this article, we explore why synthetic perfumes can be dangerous and what safer alternatives exist.

 

  • What Are Synthetic Perfumes Made Of?

  • Common Toxic Chemicals Found in Perfumes

  • How Synthetic Fragrances Affect Hormones

  • Why Natural Perfumes Are Safer

  • ftalater (phthalates)

  • parabener

  • “fragrance” som dold ingrediens

  • hormonstörande ämnen

  • påverkan på nervsystem & fertilitet

 

Many fragrance ingredients are protected as trade secrets, meaning companies are not required to disclose what “fragrance” actually contains.
