Not advice An educational summary of a public standard, as of 2026-09-30; not compliance advice. Read the current text at the source.
From 23 August 2019 products containing them could not be placed on the market, and from 23 August 2021 not made available. Atranol and chloroatranol come from oak moss and treemoss, which is why oakmoss in perfumery changed.
