Where these two actually differ
- We flag Fragrance allergens, Formaldehyde releasers and Glass container breakage on the Puracy and not on the Sense of Scents.
- We flag Aluminum compounds (systemic absorption), Fragrance allergens and sensitizers, Bacterial and mold growth in roll-on mechanism and 1,4-dioxane (potential contaminant in emulsifiers) on the Sense of Scents and not on the Puracy.
- The Puracy is Glass jar; water-based cream formula where the Sense of Scents is Roll-on deodorant (typical, water, aluminum compounds, emulsifiers, fragrance), which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- The gap is 35 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Puracy is the one to buy.
- We are less certain about the Sense of Scents grade, at 35% confidence against 82%, because it discloses less.
Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
