Frequently Asked Questions
Is Ultimate Male safe for daily use?+
For most consumers, yes. The PSS Grade A- suggests the fragrance is generally safe for regular application. However, if you have known fragrance sensitivities or very reactive skin, perform a small patch test on the inner wrist or neck first. Discontinue use if redness, irritation, or discomfort occurs.
Are there any ingredients I should watch out for?+
The two ethanone-based synthetic fragrance compounds are rated below 7.0/10. While these are permitted fragrance ingredients, they represent a small risk factor for sensitive users. ALCOHOL DENAT. may also cause dryness or irritation in some individuals. Always ensure adequate ventilation when applying and avoid contact with eyes.
What does a PSS of 7.3/10 (Grade A-) mean?+
PSS (Product Safety Score) grades overall safety based on ingredient profiles and their individual safety ratings. A Grade A- indicates good safety with minimal concern for the general population, though it is not a perfect score. It reflects that the product is suitable for most users but may warrant caution for those with specific sensitivities.
