FDA + EU EC 1223/2009 + IFRA, what regulatory layer does Magento need?
Fragrance is regulated under three overlapping frameworks. Magento doesn’t enforce compliance, that’s the brand’s job, but the storefront has to surface the right paperwork:
- FDA (US), cosmetics are regulated under the FD&C Act and (since 2026) MoCRA. Required: ingredient list on every product page, allergen disclosures, “facility registration” visible to FDA on request. Magento product attribute
ingredient_list+ PDP rendering of full INCI ingredient declaration. - EU EC 1223/2009, cosmetics regulation. Mandatory CPNP (Cosmetic Products Notification Portal) registration per product; Responsible Person (RP) EU-based; PIF (Product Information File) on file. Storefront: PDP must show the RP name + address for EU customers. Magento store-view-scoped CMS block does this.
- IFRA (International Fragrance Association), sets fragrance-ingredient limits (e.g. lilial banned 2026, hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene carboxaldehyde limited). Brand’s formulator certifies IFRA conformity per fragrance batch; Magento attaches the IFRA cert to international shipments alongside the MSDS.
- California Prop 65, warning label for products containing listed chemicals (some fragrance ingredients are listed). Storefront: PDP shows the Prop 65 warning for CA shipments. Magento billing-address-state-aware CMS block.
This is paperwork plumbing, not magic. Get the brand’s regulatory consultant to give you the per-SKU compliance matrix; the storefront just surfaces what they tell you to surface.
