Fragrance-free products

Are you looking for fragrance-free products for your skin, hair, baby or household? At Parfumvrij.nl you will find products in which fragrance and scenting agents are deliberately avoided. From fragrance-free skincare and shampoo to deodorant, sunscreen, makeup, laundry detergent and cleaning products.

Fragrance is in many more products than you might expect. Not only in perfume or eau de toilette, but also in creams, shampoo, deodorant, sunscreen, makeup, laundry detergent and cleaning products. For people who react sensitively to scenting agents, have sensitive skin or simply prefer to use products without added fragrance, it can therefore be difficult to find suitable products.

Parfumvrij.nl makes that search easier. Discover our various categories below and read what to look out for when you consciously choose products without fragrance.

What does fragrance-free mean?

A fragrance-free product contains no added fragrance intended to give the product a certain scent. On cosmetic ingredient lists, you may find fragrance listed as Parfum or Aroma, for example.

The fact that a product does not smell strong does not automatically mean that it is fragrance-free. Conversely, a fragrance-free product does not necessarily have to be completely odorless. Raw materials and active ingredients can have a slight scent of their own.

That is why it is important not only to go by the scent of a product, but also to look at the ingredients and product information.

Fragrance-free versus odorless: what is the difference?

The terms fragrance-free, unscented, without fragrance and odorless are regularly used interchangeably. However, they can mean different things.

By fragrance-free, we mean that no fragrance has been added to a product to give it a scent.

Odorless or scentless is often used for a product that has little or no perceptible scent. However, this does not always precisely indicate which ingredients have been used in the formula.

Natural ingredients also deserve attention. For example, essential oils can give a product a natural scent and may contain scenting components. “Natural” therefore does not automatically mean the same as “without scenting agents”.

Do you want to strictly avoid certain scenting agents due to a fragrance or contact allergy? Always check the full ingredient list and, in case of doubt, follow the advice of your doctor or dermatologist.

Why choose products without fragrance?

There can be all sorts of reasons to avoid fragrance. Perhaps your skin reacts quickly to certain cosmetics, you have a sensitive scalp or you simply do not like strongly scented personal care and household products.

Even when you use multiple products per day, fragrance can accumulate unnoticed: shower gel, shampoo, cream, deodorant, sunscreen, makeup, laundry detergent and cleaning products can all contain scenting agents.

By consciously choosing fragrance-free alternatives, you decide for yourself where you do and do not want to use scenting agents.

How can you recognize fragrance in an ingredient list?

For cosmetic products, the ingredient list is an important tool. Added fragrance can be indicated, among other things, with terms such as Parfum or Aroma.

In addition, certain scenting agents may be listed separately on the ingredient list. Essential oils and plant extracts can also contain scenting components.

Do you want to avoid fragrance due to a known allergy? Then do not only look at claims on the front of a package, but also check the full ingredient list of the product in question.

Furthermore, ingredients and formulas can be changed by manufacturers. Therefore, in case of a specific sensitivity, always check the current packaging before using a product.

Fragrance-free does not automatically mean hypoallergenic

An important distinction: fragrance-free does not mean that no one can react to a product.

Cosmetics, personal care products and household products consist of multiple ingredients. Someone may also be sensitive or allergic to an ingredient other than fragrance.

Claims such as “sensitive”, “mild”, “dermatologically tested” or “natural” also do not automatically mean that a product is suitable for every sensitive skin.

Do you have a diagnosed contact allergy or serious skin complaints? Then use the information on Parfumvrij.nl as a tool to help you find products and discuss individual medical questions with a doctor or dermatologist.

Fragrance-free products for the whole household

Avoiding fragrance does not have to stop at your bathroom cabinet. Those who consciously want to use fewer scenting agents can look at their entire daily routine.

• Personal care: facial care, body care, deodorant and sunscreen.
• Hair care: shampoo, conditioner and styling products.
• Cosmetics: makeup for the face, eyes and lips.
• Baby and child: daily care and laundry products.
• Washes: laundry detergent and fabric softener without fragrance.
• Household: cleaning and dishwashing products without fragrance.

This way you can decide for yourself in which parts of your daily routine you want to avoid fragrance and added scenting agents.

What is a fragrance-free product?

A fragrance-free product contains no added fragrance intended to give the product a certain scent. A product may still have a slight scent due to the raw materials used.
