What it is

Coumarin is the English name recorded for COUMARIN. The entry lists two chemical designations for the ingredient: Coumarin and 2H-1-Benzopyran-2-one. The second form helps distinguish the compound's technical identity when the INCI name appears in a composition. CAS number 91-64-5 and EC number 202-086-7 accompany those designations. These identifiers do not describe the performance of a product, but keep the substance reference precise within the entry.

What it does in a formula

COUMARIN is classified as PERFUMING. In this entry, that classification indicates that the ingredient is recorded for the role of perfuming a cosmetic formula. The function explains why the name can appear among the components of a composition, without stating intensity, combinations with other substances or the scent profile of a finished product. Those details are not provided in the record.

Conditions and care

The entry associates COUMARIN with cosmetic restriction III/77. This is the only limit information available: no maximum concentration, condition of use or accompanying text is provided to explain how the code applies to the ingredient. For that reason, the code should remain a recorded restriction reference. Without the corresponding explanation in this entry, it cannot establish a numerical limit, use instruction or conclusion about safety.
