Alcohol-free perfume: an olfactory and natural revolution.
In the world of perfumery, alcohol-free perfumes are emerging as a true revolution. Not only do they respect the skin, but they also offer a unique olfactory experience. Discover why choosing an alcohol-free perfume can transform the way you perfume yourself.
Why Choose an Alcohol-Free Perfume?
Unlike traditional perfumes, alcohol-free perfumes are designed to be gentle on the skin, even moisturizing. They are ideal for individuals with sensitive or reactive skin, as they avoid the risk of irritation and allergic reactions. By opting for an alcohol-free perfume, you're choosing a composition free from harsh chemicals, while also respecting the environment.
The Alcohols Used in Traditional Perfumes
In conventional perfumes, several types of alcohol are commonly used:
- Denatured alcohol: Common in luxury perfumes, it allows for good diffusion of aromas but can dry out the skin.
- Ethanol: Used for its volatility, it gives an initial strong, sometimes aggressive, olfactory impression.
- Isopropyl alcohol: Less common in high-end perfumery, it is mostly used in body sprays and air fresheners.
What Do Official Bodies Say About Alcohol in Perfumes Regarding Irritation and Allergies?
Ethanol (ethyl alcohol) is widely used in classic perfumery as a solvent, but some official bodies acknowledge that it can cause irritation and dry out the skin.
-
The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA)
The ECHA states that ethanol can cause slight skin and eye irritation but is not considered a skin allergen. It is classified as a non-sensitizing substance, meaning it does not trigger contact allergies in most users. -
The World Health Organization (WHO) and IARC
The WHO and IARC do not classify ethanol applied to the skin as a dangerous substance, but they acknowledge that it can alter the skin barrier, promoting dehydration and increased sensitivity to other substances. -
The French National Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health Safety (ANSES)
ANSES highlights that alcohol in cosmetics can be harsh on sensitive skin, children, and people with dermatitis. It is particularly discouraged for frequent use on atopic skin. -
The International Fragrance Association (IFRA)
IFRA, which sets standards for the fragrance industry, does not classify ethanol as a toxic ingredient, but it reminds that its drying effect can be problematic for certain skin types.
✔️ Alcohol-free perfumes, like those made from water and plant extracts by Liya Parfum Paris, offer a gentler alternative, avoiding these inconveniences.
An Unmatched Olfactory Difference
An alcohol-based perfume may seem aggressive and powerful upon application. This intensity comes from the rapid evaporation of alcohol, which propels the top notes forcefully. In contrast, an alcohol-free perfume, made from water and plant extracts, offers a soft, enveloping scent that reveals the fragrances in all their subtlety. The sensory experience is therefore smoother, more natural, and calming.
Microemulsion Technology: A Revolutionary Innovation
Liya Parfum Paris makes this unique olfactory experience possible thanks to a base of water and plant extracts obtained through a microemulsion process. This revolutionary technology, developed through green biotechnology, harmonizes the natural molecules of plant extracts, ensuring remarkable longevity and delicate care for the skin.
100% Natural and Eco-Responsible Perfume: It's Possible
Liya Parfum Paris uses natural isolates (specific odor molecules) obtained through green biotechnology, with no synthetic or polluting components. This guarantees not only an authentic 100% natural olfactory experience but also a reduced ecological footprint. By choosing a 100% natural alcohol-free perfume, you're making a gesture for your well-being and the environment.
An Olfactory Revolution
