| IFRA Critical Effect: | | Phototoxicity |
| IFRA fragrance material specification: | | | Where the bergapten (5-methoxypsoralen) content of all relevant oils present in a compound has been determined, it is recommended that for applications on areas of skin exposed to sunshine, excluding bath preparations, soaps and other products which are washed off the skin, the total level of bergapten in the consumer products should not exceed 0.0015% (15 ppm). This is equivalent to 0.0075% (75 ppm) in a fragrance compound used at 20% in the consumer product.
Where the level of bergapten has not been determined by appropriate methods, the limits specified in the guidelines on individual oils should apply.
In those cases, where such oils are used in combination with other phototoxic ingredients, the additive effect has to be taken into consideration and the use levels have to be reduced accordingly. The sum of the concentrations of all phototoxic fragrance ingredients, expressed in % of their recommended maximum level in the consumer product, shall not exceed 100. |

Rue Oil is steam distilled from freshly harvested, blooming or fruit bearing, wild growing plants of Ruta Montana, cultivated plants of Ruta Graveolens, or other species of Ruta. The plants are natives of the Mediterranean countries and they grow wild in Spain, Morocco, Corsica, Sardinia and Algeria. Cultivation also takes place in France and Spain, to a small degree in Italy and Yugoslavia. Spain is the largest producer of rue oil.
Rue Oil is a yellow to orange yellow material, liquid at room temperature, but solid at lower temperature. Its odor is sharp herbaceous, distinctly fruity orange like, with a characteristic bitteracrid backnote that makes the overall impression an unpleasant one.
For most people, however, rue oil is harmful to the mucous membranes and will often irritate the skin. On account of certain haemorrhage producing effects of the oil when taken internally.
