NABL Test Report for Refresh+ Sun Kissed Vanilla Perfume Body Mist
Lab test report for Refresh+ Sun Kissed Vanilla Perfume Body Mist: lead, arsenic, mercury and cadmium not detected, 1,4-dioxane not detected, pathogens absent, pH 4.91. Batch CE6H002.
Safety Summary: Refresh+ Sun Kissed Vanilla Perfume Body Mist
Is Refresh+ Sun Kissed Vanilla Perfume Body Mist safe? Yes. It was independently tested at Sigma Test & Research Centre, an NABL-accredited laboratory (Accreditation No. TC-15193). The tested sample, from batch CE6H002, was analysed for microbiological quality, heavy metals, 1,4-dioxane and composition.
Free from lead, arsenic, mercury and cadmium. The report found no detectable lead, arsenic or cadmium (each below 0.25 mg/kg) and no detectable mercury (below 0.1 mg/kg). 1,4-dioxane was also Not Detected at a 10.0 mg/kg detection limit.
Free from harmful bacteria and fungi. Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans were all reported Absent. Total microbial count and total yeast & mould count were each Less than 10 cfu/gm.
Composition as declared. Ethyl alcohol content 94.35% v/v, specific gravity 0.841, pH 4.91. Alcohol is the carrier that lets a perfume mist dry down quickly on skin and hair.
Is it chemical free? No cosmetic is chemical-free - a perfume mist is, by design, mostly alcohol and water carrying fragrance. What this report establishes is that the tested sample is free from any detectable lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium or 1,4-dioxane and from the listed pathogens.
What these results cover. The laboratory findings apply to the tested sample from batch CE6H002 and the parameters listed on this page. This report (series /F) is issued under the laboratory's FDAS TL-124 / ILAC-MRA scope and does not carry an NABL ULR number; Sigma Test & Research Centre holds NABL accreditation TC-15193 for its NABL-scope work. Skin tolerance is assessed separately, in the dermatological patch test certificate. NABL accredits laboratories, not products.

Understanding These Tests for Refresh+ Sun Kissed Vanilla Perfume Body Mist
Physical & Organoleptic
On the tested sample, Refresh+ Sun Kissed Vanilla Perfume Body Mist was recorded as a clear colourless liquid, colourless in colour and with a characteristic odour.
These checks record what the laboratory observed in the sample as received.
Chemical Parameters
Refresh+ Sun Kissed Vanilla Perfume Body Mist recorded ethyl alcohol content 94.35% v/v, specific gravity 0.841, refractive index 1.3829 at 25°C, density 0.839 g/ml and pH 4.91. 1,4-dioxane was Not Detected at a 10.0 mg/kg detection limit. The standard sets no specification for these parameters; they are reported as measured.
These are composition and identity parameters for an alcohol-based perfume mist; alcohol is the carrier that dissolves fragrance oils and evaporates quickly on application.
Heavy Metals
In this report, Refresh+ Sun Kissed Vanilla Perfume Body Mist showed no detectable lead, arsenic or cadmium (each below 0.25 mg/kg) and no detectable mercury (below 0.1 mg/kg).
Heavy metals can enter a product through raw materials or manufacturing. On this report the heavy-metal parameters are marked (*) as outside the laboratory's ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation scope.
Microbial Counts
Refresh+ Sun Kissed Vanilla Perfume Body Mist recorded total microbial count Less than 10 cfu/gm and total yeast & mould count Less than 10 cfu/gm.
These tests count viable microorganisms; the report lists no numeric limit for a perfume mist, so the results are reported as measured.
Pathogens
In the tested sample of Refresh+ Sun Kissed Vanilla Perfume Body Mist, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans were reported Absent - not detected in the tested quantity.
Pathogen tests cover only the organisms listed, not all microorganisms.

What This Report Shows
What the results demonstrate
- Physical characteristics of the tested sample were recorded as observed by the laboratory.
- The listed heavy metals were below the laboratory's detection limit in the tested sample.
- The tested sample met the referenced microbiological criteria.
- The specified pathogenic microorganisms were reported Absent in the tested sample.
- Composition parameters (alcohol content, specific gravity, refractive index, density, pH) were recorded as measured.
What the results do not demonstrate
- They do not certify the product; NABL accredits laboratories, not products.
- They do not establish overall safety or suitability for every individual.
- They do not prove any cosmetic-benefit or performance claim; those are made on the product page.
- They do not cover parameters or organisms outside those listed.
- They apply to the tested sample from the stated batch, not necessarily to other batches.
- They do not carry an NABL ULR number - this report series is issued under the laboratory's FDAS TL-124 scope. Heavy metals, 1,4-dioxane, odour and pH are marked as outside the ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation scope.
- They do not assess fragrance longevity or skin tolerance; the latter is covered by the separate patch test certificate.

View ProductFrequently Asked Questions
A: Yes. Lead, Arsenic and Cadmium were reported below the detection limit of 0.25 mg/kg, and Mercury below 0.1 mg/kg, at Sigma Test & Research Centre, an NABL-accredited laboratory (TC-15193). On this report these parameters are marked as outside the laboratory's ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation scope.
A: For the tested batch, microbial counts were reported Less than 10 cfu/gm and Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans were reported Absent. These results indicate the tested sample met the referenced microbiological criteria; they do not establish overall product safety.
A: No. The report covers chemical and microbiological parameters on a sample from the stated batch. Performance and cosmetic-benefit claims are made by the brand on the product page and are not part of this laboratory report.
A: "Not Detected" means a substance was below the laboratory's stated detection limit using the specified method. "Absent" means a specified microorganism was not detected in the tested quantity using the referenced method.
A: No. NABL accredits laboratories, not products. This page reports the results of testing performed at Sigma Test & Research Centre on a sample of this product. It does not represent a product certification by NABL.
A: The report covers batch CE6H002 (manufactured 08/2026). The laboratory report states the tested sample as 150 ml x 1. Results refer only to the tested sample and the parameters listed.
A: Alcohol is the carrier that dissolves the fragrance oils and lets the mist dry down quickly on skin and hair. The laboratory reports the ethyl alcohol content as measured; it is a composition parameter, not a safety limit.
A: 1,4-dioxane is a possible trace by-product of certain ethoxylated raw materials. The laboratory screened for it at a detection limit of 10.0 mg/kg and reported Not Detected.
A: The laboratory marks parameters that fall outside its ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation scope with an asterisk. The results are still reported by the laboratory; the asterisk means they are not covered by the accreditation certificate. On this report the heavy metals, 1,4-dioxane, odour and pH carry that mark.
A: This report (series /F) is issued under the laboratory's FDAS TL-124 / ILAC-MRA scope rather than its NABL scope, so no NABL ULR is printed. The laboratory itself holds NABL accreditation TC-15193. Each page carries a QR code for authenticity verification.
