- Toxicity Summary: The existing information was reviewed by the independent Expert Panel for Fragrance Safety and supports the use of 3,7-Dimethyl-1,6-nonadien-3-ol as described in this fragrance ingredient safety assessment. Data for 3,7-Dimethyl-1,6-nonadien-3-ol and from read-across analog linalool show that 3,7-dimethyl-1,6-nonadien-3-ol is not expected to be genotoxic. Data for read-across analog linalool provide a calculated Margin of Exposure (MOE) greater than 100 for the repeated dose toxicity, reproductive toxicity, and local respiratory toxicity endpoints, and show that there are no skin sensitization safety concerns for 3,7-dimethyl-1,6-nonadien-3-ol under the current declared levels of use. 3,7-Dimethyl-1,6-nonadien-3-ol s not expected to be photoirritating/photoallergenic based on evaluation of the ultraviolet/visible (UV/Vis) spectra.

Key data
Official EU ingredient-name evidence
The ingredient name exactly matches the official 2025 EU glossary of common ingredient names.
An exact glossary-name match supports label identity; it does not by itself mean that an ingredient is permitted, safe for every use, or free from annex restrictions. Check the regulatory evidence above.
