What are the most common allergens found in fragrance oils?

Fragrance oils, whether synthetic or natural, can contain allergens that may trigger skin or respiratory reactions in sensitive individuals. Common allergens include compounds naturally found in essential oils and botanical extracts, such as limonene (found in citrus peels), linalool (from lavender), eugenol (from clove oil), and geraniol (from rose oil). These ingredients can cause irritation, redness, or itching for some people, particularly those with sensitive skin or allergies. Synthetic fragrance oils may also include allergens like certain artificial musks or preservatives, which are used to extend shelf life but can sometimes provoke adverse reactions.
