Hi Sue, thanks for your message. That's a great question! I am not an expert on salicylate free products, but I have never been able to find a salicylate free fragrance or perfume. Salicylates are natural anti-inflammatory and medicinal substances found in plants, which are the active ingredient in aspirin. Natural fragrances such as essential oils contain a lot of salicylates. I am not sure how you would find a salicylate free fragrance or perfume.

That being said, I do know of one brand of Salicylate free gylcerin soap which is lightly scented. This soap is completely free of salicylates, and yet they somehow managed to provide a gentle, safe and non-toxic scent of Vanilla or Gardenia for those who like the luxury of a nicely scented soap. It also comes in unscented, for those who prefer no fragrance. This may be a good solution for you for a salicylate free fragrance for daily use!
