Ingredients Side-by-side
Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Parfum is a catch-all term for an ingredient or more that is used to give a scent to products.
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.
Learn more about ParfumCitronellol is used to add fragrance/parfum to a product. It is often derived from plants such as roses. In fact, it can be found in many essential oils including geranium, lavender, neroli, and more. The scent of Citronellol is often described as "fresh, grassy, and citrus-like".
Since the Citronellol molecule is already unstable, Citronellol becomes irritating on the skin when exposed to air.
Citronellol is a modified terpene. Terpenes are unsaturated hydrocarbons found in plants. They make up the primary part of essential oils.
Citronellol is not able to be absorbed into deeper layers of the skin. It has low permeability,
Citronellol is also a natural insect repellent.

This made my hair feel really nice and smooth without weighing it down like a lot of leave-in products do (my hair is very fine so it gets easily weighed down). This also worked great for controlling static during the dry winter months. It's not really worth all the hype in my opinion though - the results were better than with most leave-in conditioners I've tried, but the difference isn't huge and I definitely wouldn't say that this "transformed" my hair in any way. I also find that this is best combined with another heat protectant, as I noticed increased split ends after using a straightener whenever I was using this as my only heat protection.
In terms of results, this is among the top leave-in conditioners that I've tried though and I liked this enough that I would repurchase. The only reason I won't do that for now is because the Biolage All-in-One Coconut treatment spray is so incredibly similar in terms of results and ingredients and is usually cheaper where I live, so it just makes more sense to use that one. However, I'm glad to have a backup option in this if the Biolage were to be discontinued.
