Also called "fragrance", this ingredient can be a blend of hundreds of chemicals or plant oils. This means every product with "fragrance" or "parfum" in the ingredients list is a different mixture.
In the US, the alternative name for parfum is 'fragrance'.
The term 'fragrance' is not regulated in many countries. In many cases, it is up to the brand to define this term.
For instance, many brands choose to label themselves as "fragrance-free" because they are not using synthetic fragrances. However, their products may still contain ingredients such as essential oils that are considered a fragrance by INCI standards.
One example is Calendula flower extract. Calendula is an essential oil that still imparts a scent or 'fragrance'.
Depending on the blend, the ingredients in the mixture can cause allergies and sensitivities on the skin. Some ingredients that are known EU allergens include linalool and citronellol.
Parfum can also be used to mask or cover an unpleasant scent.
The bottom line is: not all fragrances/parfum/ingredients are created equally. If you are worried about fragrances, we recommend taking a closer look at an ingredient. And of course, we always recommend speaking with a professional.

I really wanted to love this since everyone was raving about it but it didn't work out that well for me. The coverage is really good, although 21N pulled slightly light and grey on me (I have neutral undertones and am usually an N1 in MAC), but at the end of the day it always left my skin dry(er) and emphasized any and every single dry patch on my skin, especially around my nose and chin. It also didn't perform well under setting powder - either made me look like the Sahara or separated by the end of the day. Could never retouch this during the day without making it look worse too.
Nonetheless, I'll continue experimenting with this as spot coverage and if I'm lucky I'll get it to play well with more hydrating products in the future. For now, I'm switching to a dewyer foundation.
