“If we ban citral from perfumes, of which certain elements are allergens, we should ban orange juice. It is absurd. We should not ban nature, only learn how to live with it,” said Frederic Malle, who founded the French luxury perfume company Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle. [Emphasis added.]

Part II: The Perfume Industry & EU Regulations
The quote is from Part I of the blog that I was reading. Some classic perfumes, and their formulas are not protected as intellectual properties. Whether you care about natural ingredients in perfumes or not, there are people who depends on producing the ingredients or using those natural oils as core of their creations.
