Fragrance help
I currently have a facial moisturizer that uses a combination of sandalwood oil (.60g), vanilla (.20g) oil and synthetic white musk oil (.20g) for the scent of my product. Do I still have to include the words “fragrance/Perfume” as part of my ingredients list? or can I just say “Essential oil blend” instead?
Also, are there any other essential oils that I can use instead of synthetic White Musk to give me a similar flowery scent? I’m trying to make this product clean and it seems like using white musk is not the way to go, even if I’m just using a small percentage in the formula
Also, since the percentage of the white musk is so small (.20g), do I still have to declare it in my ingredients list?

There’s no such INCI as ‘essential oils blend’. You even have to disclose some components of essential oils (such as limonene) separately when used at a certain %. Regarding replacement of musk, there are aroma chemicals that smell similar to musk such as ISO-E super and galaxolide. I think this question should be asked on a perfumery rather than formulation forum.
