What Fabuloso Original Fruits Scent is made of, ingredients and materials
Fabuloso Original is an aqueous (water-based) solution formulated with surfactants to break down grease and soil, plus fragrance compounds for scent. The surfactants are the active cleaning agents; fragrance is a blend of essential oils or synthetic compounds that may include common allergens or sensitizers. Being water-based rather than solvent-based means lower volatility and reduced inhalation risk compared to petroleum-distillate cleaners, though dilution and ventilation still matter during use.
What’s concerning
Category baseline
The starting point for this type of product, before anything specific to this product is counted.
No PFAS disclosure
No public statement from the brand about PFAS in this product.
Fragrance allergens and sensitizers
Passion fruit scent blend is not itemized on labels; common fragrance components (limonene, linalool) can trigger contact dermatitis, respiratory irritation, or asthma exacerbation in sensitive individuals. No allergen statement or fragrance transparency on Fabuloso packaging.
Surfactant skin and eye irritation
Undiluted or concentrated product exposure can cause redness, itching, or corneal irritation. Standard labeling warns against eye contact and prolonged skin contact; risk is managed through dilution and glove use.
Inhalation exposure during use
Water-based formulation limits volatile organic compounds (VOCs) compared to solvent-based cleaners, but fragrance compounds and some surfactant aerosols are still inhaled during application. Ventilation and duration of exposure are the primary controls.
Acute poisoning if ingested
Like all multi-purpose cleaners, this product is toxic if swallowed; risk is managed by storage away from children and pets and standard warning labels. No specific data on this brand vs. category competitors.
What’s reassuring
Preservative system composition
Fabuloso does not publicly disclose preservative type (e.g., parabens, formaldehyde-releaser, phenolic); no recalls or reports of contamination or preservative toxicity on record for this product.
How is this PFAS grade calculated?
The brand's record and disclosure
Colgate-Palmolive (parent company) does not publish detailed ingredient breakdowns or third-party safety certifications for Fabuloso on its public materials. No major safety recalls or regulatory actions on record for the Original formula. The brand's disclosure stance is silent on surfactant sourcing, preservative systems, or fragrance allergen content, limiting independent verification of composition. Standard EPA labeling and SDS availability apply.
How it compares in its category
Fabuloso Original is a conventional, budget-tier multi-purpose cleaner without eco-certifications (e.g., EPA Safer Choice, EcoLogo). Comparable products like Lysol or Clorox all-purpose cleaners share similar aqueous-surfactant bases and fragrance exposure profiles. Plant-based or fragrance-free alternatives exist but command higher prices; Fabuloso's appeal is cost and broad utility, not hazard reduction.
If you buy it
Dilute according to label instructions; undiluted product increases skin and eye irritation risk. Use in ventilated spaces to minimize inhalation of fragrance volatiles, especially for people with asthma, eczema, or fragrance sensitivity. Keep away from children and pets; the bright color and fruit scent can be misleading to young children. Do not mix with bleach or ammonia-based products (e.g., urine, glass cleaners), as this creates toxic chlorine gas.
