Frequently Asked Questions
-
How does clean perfume differ from natural or organic options?
Both natural and synthetic fragrances can qualify as clean. At Credo Beauty, we accept some synthetic fragrances that are environmentally friendly and have robust safety profiles. However, we recognize that there may be customers who prefer natural fragrances. In order to cater to these preferences, we ensure that each scented product we carry is clearly labeled to include fragrance types. We also urge our brands to fully disclose all fragrance ingredients, giving consumers the power to make informed choices. This is a crucial aspect of our Fragrance Transparency Policy. -
What sets clean fragrance apart from regular products on the market?
At Credo Beauty, our fragrances do not contain phthalates, nitromusks, polycyclic musks, or any of the 2700+ potentially harmful ingredients itemized in our Dirty List. Regular fragrances may contain these ingredients, which are linked to potential negative health effects. -
Are clean perfumes suitable for sensitive skin?
Individual sensitivities to fragrance can vary, but the clean fragrances that we offer at Credo Beauty follow our radical Fragrance Transparency Policy. This is to provide more information about the ingredients contained in each of our products containing fragrances. -
How long-lasting are clean perfumes compared to regular ones?
Clean fragrances can be just as long-lasting as conventional fragrances. Of course, as with any fragrance, the longevity may vary based on an individual's body chemistry and the concentration of the perfume. Applying a clean fragrance to moisturized skin and reapplying throughout the day can help you maintain a perfume's scent for longer. -
Can clean perfumes be as fragrant as traditional perfumes?
Yes, clean perfumes can be just as fragrant as traditional perfumes. Clean fragrances are formulated with high-quality, natural ingredients that can create unique, fragrant scents. Additionally, many clean perfumes use essential oils and other botanical extracts to provide a strong and pleasing fragrance that lasts. -
Are there gender-specific clean perfumes, or are they unisex?
Clean perfumes can be both gender-specific and unisex. Traditionally, clean perfumes for men tend to be woodsy, fresh, or earthy, while women's perfumes tend to offer a more fruity and floral profile. But, ultimately, it's up to personal preference and what fragrance best suits an individual's body chemistry. -
How do I choose the right clean perfume scent?
Choosing the right clean perfume scent is all about personal preference. Start by identifying scents or notes that you enjoy in other products, such as skin care or candles. This can give you an idea of which fragrance families you may prefer, such as floral, citrus, or woody. You can then sample a few different clean perfumes within those families to find your perfect match. It's also helpful to consider the occasion and season when choosing a fragrance–some may be more suitable for everyday wear while others are better suited for special occasions or certain times of the year. The most important thing is that you choose a scent that makes you feel confident, comfortable, and happy.
