Parfum is a catch-all term for an ingredient or more that is used to give aroma to products. Parfum, or fragrance, 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. One example is Calendula flower extract. Essential oil ingredients still impart a scent or 'fragrance'.
Depending on the blend, it can cause allergies and sensitivities on the skin. Some ingredients that are known EU allergens include linalool and citronellol.
Products use parfum often to give products a scent or cover up smells of different ingredients.
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.

This is a certified holy grail. Where do i even start? It goes smoothly on the face, the coverage is very good for a BB cream, feels light on the face and leaves a beautifull glowy finish on the skin. I set it with a setting spray (mac fix it +, another great one) and the foundation doesnt move around or fades away. It sets very beautifully, including those more problematic areas (like the nose) where it looks absolutly natural. Looks great during the day, and the skin feels hydrated. If you have oily skin, you may get oily in dome areas, like the T zone. The shade really matches my complexion, and i dont even feel the need to use this on my neck (i use n° 23)
Will buy again, for sure!
