Photoallergic contact dermatitis to men's perfumes

Abstract
Three patients with photosensitive eruptions related to the use of different men''s perfumes were evaluated. The patients were photoallergic to musk ambrette, an inexpensive, readily available synthetic perfume ingredient. Studies of cross-reactivity with other perfumed colognes and after-shave lotions suggest that musk ambrette is present in clinically significant concentration in large numbers of other cosmetic products.
