The Shuunnya promise
A room spray that prints what the shelf leaves out: the oil percentage, every ingredient to two decimals, the allergens from each lot's own test, and what it is not for.
- Real vetiver 0.70% and Himalayan cedarwood 0.50%, nothing else for scent
- A plant-derived mixer keeps the oil even: 4.80%, no ethoxylates
- No alcohol, so no flammable label, no fixative, no synthetic musk
- Preserved by a four-part set at 1.10%, as a spray you breathe must be
- Allergen figures from each lot's own GC-MS, not a supplier's paper
Details
The odour neutraliser in this range removes a smell; this is the other thing, for when you want a room to smell of something. It is water, a plant-derived mixer, two real oils (steam-distilled vetiver, the khus root of India, and Himalayan cedarwood) and a four-part preservative. Eight ingredients, every one printed with its percentage.
- Why there is a mixer: Oil and water do not mix. A spray of water and oil alone floats the oil on top and changes strength with every spray. A small amount of a mild plant-derived mixer (polyglyceryl-10 caprylate, 4.80%, made without ethylene oxide) keeps the oil evenly spread, so every spray is the same strength.
- Why there is no alcohol: the mixer does the mixing. Alcohol would only dry the mist faster, and it would make the spray a flammable liquid. So this one carries no flammable label and no fixative to make the scent linger.
- Why there is a preservative: a water spray that you breathe has to be kept clean. The four-part set (1.10%) will be challenge-tested by an accredited laboratory against five named organisms on the first pilot batch, and the report published here before the first sale.
- The scent: vetiver (0.70%) is earthy and cool, the smell of khus screens on an Indian summer day. Himalayan cedarwood (0.50%) is the dry, woody base under it. Real oil with no fixative is light and does not linger: it fades as the room's air changes.
- What is in the oils, honestly: real oils carry fragrance allergens, and the figures differ from lot to lot. They are printed for each lot, from that lot's own GC-MS test. If you react to fragrance, do not use it.
- How to use: two strokes toward the middle of a room, or a light mist on curtains, a sofa or car seats from 30 cm, away from people, animals and food. Open a window or door.
- Choosing between them: if you want a smell removed rather than added, choose the Odour Neutraliser Spray, which leaves no scent of its own. If you want a room to smell of something, this is the one.
- Not for: skin; pillows or bedding (the fragrance industry's safety code is much stricter for a pillow, where your face lies on the damp cloth, and no oil has been assessed here against it); an infant's bedroom or nursery. Keep birds out of the room, and cats and dogs need a way out of it. Test a hidden seam of silk or a pale fabric first, since vetiver oil is dark and can tint.
- Pack: amber glass with a fine-mist pump and no pressurised can. Only the pump is plastic: take it off before the glass goes to recycling.
- Cost per use: two strokes is about 0.30 ml, so 333 uses from the 100 ml at Rs 1.05 and 666 from the 200 ml at Rs 0.82.
Product information
Ingredients (INCI), in descending order, with percentages
- Full list
- Aqua (Purified water 92.90%), Polyglyceryl-10 Caprylate (Plant-derived mixer 4.80%), Vetiveria Zizanoides Root Oil (Vetiver oil 0.70%), Phenoxyethanol (Gentle preservative 0.60%), Cedrus Deodara Wood Oil (Himalayan cedarwood oil 0.50%), Caprylyl Glycol (Mould guard 0.30%), Ethylhexylglycerin (Vegetable-derived booster 0.10%), Sodium Phytate (Rice bran extract 0.10%). Exactly 8 ingredients summing to 100.00%.
- Aqua (Purified water)
- 92.90% w/w. Demineralised, from a plant with a sanitation record. The carrier of everything else.
- Polyglyceryl-10 Caprylate (Plant-derived mixer)
- 4.80% w/w. Holds the oil evenly in the water at a 4 to 1 ratio to the oil. Made from glycerol and a coconut or palm-kernel fatty acid, with no ethylene oxide. No entry in the Indian cosmetics prohibited-substances list (IS 4707 Part 2). The bench may raise it before the first sale, and the list is reprinted if it does.
- The 1 percent line
- Falls after Polyglyceryl-10 Caprylate. All 8 ingredients sum to 100.00 percent
- Vetiveria Zizanoides Root Oil (Vetiver oil)
- 0.70% w/w. Steam-distilled from the roots of Chrysopogon zizanioides, grown in India: the earthy, cool scent. No entry in IS 4707 Part 2. Composition and peroxide value (under 10 mmol/L) checked on every lot.
- Phenoxyethanol (Gentle preservative)
- 0.60% w/w. Bacteria. Indian cosmetics ceiling 1.00% (IS 4707 Part 3, used as a cross-check); ours is 40% below it.
- Cedrus Deodara Wood Oil (Himalayan cedarwood oil)
- 0.50% w/w. Steam-distilled Himalayan cedarwood, the Indian oil: the dry, woody base note. No entry for this species in IS 4707 Part 2; its one Cedrus entry (C. atlantica) caps peroxide value at 10 mmol/L, the limit we hold both oils to.
- Caprylyl Glycol (Mould guard)
- 0.30% w/w. The mould flank, where phenoxyethanol is weakest. Not a listed biocide in IS 4707 Part 3.
- Ethylhexylglycerin (Vegetable-derived booster)
- 0.10% w/w. Strengthens the other preservatives. Not a listed biocide in IS 4707 Part 3.
- Sodium Phytate (Rice bran extract)
- 0.10% w/w. Holds the minerals that would help bacteria grow, so the preservatives work harder. Our replacement for EDTA. No entry in IS 4707.
What is left out, and what took its place
- Alcohol
- None. The mixer holds the oil, so alcohol would only dry the mist faster. No alcohol means no flammable-liquid label.
- Synthetic fragrance, fixative, musk
- None. The scent is two real oils at 1.20% in all, with nothing to make it linger. It is light and fades as the room's air changes.
- Ethoxylated mixers
- Left out. The common mixer is made with ethylene oxide. A plant-derived polyglyceryl ester does the same job without it.
- Isothiazolinones, formaldehyde donors, EDTA
- Left out. The four-part preservative set and a phytate chelator replace them.
- Propellant, pressurised can
- None. A mechanical fine-mist pump in an amber glass bottle.
- Dye
- None. Any tint is the vetiver oil's own.
- Germ-kill claim
- None. A room mist is not a disinfectant. If a room needs disinfecting, use a registered disinfectant at its own stated strength.
- What we will not say
- Natural, non-toxic, pet-safe, baby-safe, hypoallergenic, chemical-free, relaxing, sleep, purifies. And no purity claim from a test that cannot support it: chiral GC cannot tell natural citral from synthetic, so we state only what each lot's GC-MS shows.
Use, pack and shelf life
- Use on
- Room air, curtains, sofa, car seats, the linen cupboard.
- Not this one if
- You want a smell removed rather than added: choose the Odour Neutraliser Spray, which leaves no scent of its own. Or you want no fragrance in the house at all: choose neither, and open a window.
- How much
- Two strokes toward the middle of a room, or a light mist on curtains, a sofa or car seats from 30 cm. The pump is specified at about 0.15 ml a stroke and weighed on every lot.
- Not for
- Skin. Pillows or bedding. A room where an infant sleeps. Spraying at a person or an animal. Birds should be kept out of the room, and cats and dogs need a way out of it.
- If you react to fragrance, or have asthma
- Do not use it. Real oils carry fragrance allergens, and a plant origin does not make an oil safe for everyone.
- Test first
- A hidden seam of silk or a pale fabric. Vetiver oil is dark and can tint.
- Scent
- Light, with no fixative. We do not state how long it lasts until a ten-person panel has measured it.
- Cost per use
- Two strokes is about 0.30 ml: 333 uses from 100 ml at Rs 1.05, and 666 from 200 ml at Rs 0.82.
- Measured pH
- Recorded on every lot and published with the lot's report. No figure is printed before a lot exists: the base carries no buffer, and the bench has not yet measured it.
- Format and pack
- Amber glass 100 ml and 200 ml, fine-mist pump with overcap, kraft carton. No pressurised can. Only the pump is plastic: remove it before recycling the glass.
- Shelf life
- Best before 18 months from manufacture, unopened. Keep out of direct sun and heat. The period after opening is set by the in-use stability test at the bench and printed when it is known.
Compliance and safety
- Governing position
- A plain room spray: no germ-kill, insect or health claim, and not applied to the body. No Indian Standard exists for a room spray and none is compulsory; our own finished-product specification, with named test methods, is the quality contract.
- Fragrance safety
- Assessed against the fragrance industry's safety code (IFRA, 51st Amendment) for an air spray and a fabric spray, and not for a pillow. The oil supplier's certificate and each lot's GC-MS are checked for every restricted material.
- Ingredient safety check
- None of the eight ingredients has an entry in the Indian cosmetics prohibited-substances list (IS 4707 Part 2), searched by name. Phenoxyethanol at 0.60% is inside that standard's 1.00% ceiling. Used as a cross-check; this is not a cosmetic.
- Microbiological purity (IS 14648)
- Finished limits ten times stricter than the catch-all row of IS 14648 (a cosmetics standard, used by analogy): total aerobic count under 100 per ml (the row permits 1,000) and yeast and mould under 10 per ml (it permits 100), with E. coli, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus, C. albicans and the Burkholderia cepacia complex absent in 1 ml.
- Preservation efficacy (ISO 11930)
- ISO 11930 challenge test (Criterion A, five named organisms including a mould) on the first pilot batch, on the finished liquid, with the report published here before the first sale. The preservatives are re-assayed after six weeks at 45 C.
- Eye and hazard
- The eye-hazard class is confirmed from each lot's safety sheets before the label is final. If in eyes, rinse with water for several minutes, remove contact lenses if easy, keep rinsing; if it persists, get medical advice. Not flammable: there is no alcohol.
- Statutory declarations (Legal Metrology 2011)
- Maker and marketer name and address, generic name, net quantity in ml, month and year of manufacture, MRP inclusive of all taxes, unit sale price per ml, consumer care contact, lot code. 100 ml: Rs 3.49 per ml; 200 ml: Rs 2.75 per ml.
- Lot code and certificate
- Every pack carries a lot code and a QR code to this page's lot selector (shuunnya.com/store/spring-room-mist?lot=<code>), where that lot's certificate of analysis is shown once it is released. The page says plainly when none is published for the lot.
- Lab reports
- None yet: the product is pre-bench. Each lot's GC-MS and the ISO 11930 report will be published here as they exist.
