BACKGROUND: Limited data exist on fragrance contact allergy among Turkish population.
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency and characteristics of fragrance contact allergy in Turkey.
METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 2566 patients consecutively patch tested with the European baseline series and additionally with a fragrance series (n = 358) at a tertiary referral center between 1996 and 2019.
RESULTS: One hundred sixty-three patients (6.4%) (male/female, 1.5:1) were sensitized with at least 1 fragrance allergen. Fragrance mix (FM) I was most frequently positive (3.9%), followed by Myroxylon pereirae (3.1%), FM II (2%), and hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene carboxaldehyde (0.5%), the latter exclusively positive in FM II-positive patients. Among 358 patients patch tested with a fragrance series, positive patch test reactions were observed in 38 patients, including 8 who did not react to baseline fragrance markers. Clinically relevant fragrance allergy was established in 128 patients (78.5%) from nonoccupational (72.4%) and occupational (6.1%) sources.
CONCLUSIONS: The low prevalence, the middle-aged male preponderance, and the predominant involvement of hands were unusual findings. Rose/citrus-flavored perfumes and eau de cologne, which are traditionally preferred in our country, were important elicitors of fragrance contact allergy, especially among middle-aged and older men.
