Yes — analysing the INCI list, AllerNote found 9 of the EU-labelled fragrance allergens: parfum, limonene, benzyl alcohol, linalool, geraniol, citral, citronellol, coumarin, benzyl salicylate. If you're fragrance-sensitive or patch-test positive to a fragrance mix, treat Ambre Solaire Ultra-Hydrating Protection Lotion SPF 30 with caution and patch test before full use.

Is Ambre Solaire Ultra-Hydrating Protection Lotion SPF 30 paraben-free?

No parabens were detected in Ambre Solaire Ultra-Hydrating Protection Lotion SPF 30's listed ingredients. Worth keeping in perspective: parabens are among the least common cosmetic allergens, so "paraben-free" matters far less for reactive skin than avoiding fragrance or the preservative MI/MCI.
