How we scored it
cosing_description is mismatched (describes Ficus oxyphylla, not peach); trusting the ingredient name 'Prunus Persica Flower Water', a standard peach-blossom steam distillate → 1.0.
What counts. ISO 16128-2 scores the atoms that remain in the final ingredient. Reagents, solvents, catalysts and protecting groups used during manufacture leave no mass behind and are not counted.
Where it comes from
Prunus Persica Flower Water is conventionally the aqueous steam distillate of peach blossoms, per standard 'Flower Water' INCI naming. The supplied cosing_description field erroneously describes Ficus oxyphylla leaf extract and appears to be a database mismatch.
In plain English
A floral water steam-distilled from peach blossoms, used for skin conditioning. A natural aqueous plant distillate; note the source description in our database appears to reference the wrong plant.
