Decode Label Safety Score
How we got 7.5 ShowHide
Rates 8.6/10 on the rest of its formulation — the cap is a targeted caution, not a problem with the whole product.
Methodology v3.1 (updated 8 Oct 2026) — what changed
This bathing bar offers a generally mild cleansing experience with a blend of saponified oils and gentle surfactants. The primary concern for some users will be the undisclosed 'Fragrance', which can contain common allergens relevant to individuals with sensitive skin or fragrance allergies. While it includes beneficial ingredients like Aloe Barbadensis Extract and Niacinamide, several potentially beneficial ingredients are present only in trace amounts. Overall, it's a suitable option for most users, but those with fragrance sensitivities should exercise caution.

Mild cleansing bar with undisclosed fragrance; contains beneficial oils and extracts
This bathing bar uses a combination of natural oils and a gentle surfactant for cleansing. The main point of caution is the presence of 'Fragrance' without specific disclosure of its components, which is a common source of skin irritation and allergic reactions for sensitive individuals. It also contains humectants and skin-conditioning agents, but some advertised botanical ingredients are in very low concentrations.

Watch out for
The presence of undisclosed 'Fragrance' may pose a risk for individuals with fragrance sensitivities or allergies.
Several potentially beneficial ingredients (Coffea Arabica Seed Powder, Theobroma Cacao Shell Powder, Ethylhexylglycerin, Titanium Dioxide) are present only in trace amounts, limiting their impact on the formulation's overall strength.
Phenoxyethanol — common preservative - capped at 1%; French regulator advises caution for under-3s.
Ingredient Concerns safety database
Sources cited below may be Indian (FSSAI) or international (EU, US, WHO, IARC) — an international classification or law is evidence, not an Indian regulatory finding.
Phenoxyethanol
Phenoxyethanol is the most widely used paraben-free preservative. The EU limits it to 1% in cosmetics (SCCS has confirmed this is safe for adults), and the French regulator ANSM advised in 2012 against leave-on products containing it for the nappy area of children under three and recommended a lower concentration for them. It can irritate sensitive skin.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: EU Regulation 1223/2009 Annex V (max 1.0%); SCCS opinion SCCS/1575/16; ANSM recommendation (2012)
Phenoxyethanol: regulation, sources and other products →Fragrance
"Fragrance" or "parfum" is a catch-all term that can conceal a blend of hundreds of undisclosed chemicals, including known allergens, sensitisers, and potential endocrine disruptors. The EU now mandates disclosure of 82 specific fragrance allergens. People with fragrance sensitivity, asthma, or contact dermatitis should prefer fragrance-free products.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: EU Regulation 2023/1545; IFRA
Fragrance: regulation, sources and other products →Sugar Alcohols (Polyols)
Polyols are bulk sweeteners and humectants (also used in toothpaste). They are only partly absorbed, so large amounts can cause gas, bloating and a laxative effect, and EU rules require foods containing them to say "excessive consumption may produce laxative effects". Xylitol is toxic to dogs.
Regulatory & scientific authority Source: EU Regulation 1169/2011 Annex III (polyol labelling statement); EU Regulation 1333/2008
Sugar Alcohols (Polyols): regulation, sources and other products →Propylene Glycol (E1520)
Propylene glycol is a widely used humectant and solvent considered safe at normal levels. It can irritate or sensitise a minority of people, mainly in leave-on products on damaged or eczema-prone skin.
Peer-reviewed research Source: Cosmetic Ingredient Review; contact-dermatitis literature
Propylene Glycol: regulation, sources and other products →Decode Label Analysis
Contains 'Fragrance' without specific disclosure of its components, which is a common allergen and can cause irritation for individuals with sensitive skin or fragrance allergies. EU regulations require specific declaration of known fragrance allergens above certain thresholds.
Propylene Glycol is a humectant and solvent that can occasionally cause skin irritation in sensitive individuals, especially at higher concentrations. In a rinse-off product, the risk is generally low.
Claim check
Front-of-pack marketing claims checked against this product's actual ingredients and nutrition. "Can't verify" means the label does not provide enough information to check the claim — it is not the same as the claim being false.
Glycolic Acid is listed, but the label doesn't state the 4% concentration, so the strength can't be confirmed.
The ingredient list includes Coffea arabica (Coffee) seed powder, supporting the 'Coffee Detox' claim.

About this analysis: Based on declared label information and available evidence. Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test products, and a score is not a regulatory determination or medical advice.
Disclaimer: Safety scores are Decode Label-generated assessments based on publicly available regulatory data (FSSAI, WHO, EFSA, IARC) and peer-reviewed research. They are not a substitute for professional medical advice, and they are not a regulatory determination, a laboratory safety certification or a medical diagnosis. Ingredient safety can vary by individual health conditions, concentration, and usage context. Decode Label is an independent information service and scores every brand by the same rules. No brand pays for or influences its score. Our founder also founded the personal-care brand Botani Bestie (see our story); its products are scored exactly like everyone else's. Data limitations: This assessment is based on the information declared on the product label and the evidence sources above — Decode Label does not independently laboratory-test this product. Ingredient concentrations, sourcing and manufacturing can vary between batches and are not always disclosed. A finding that is not shown here means it was not identified from the available label information, not that it has been ruled out.
