Import Tips
• Include GC-MS test reports proving hydrosol nature and absence of synthetic additives or alcohol
• Use retail spray bottles for cosmetic classification; bulk shipments risk food or extract headings
• Avoid claiming 'essential water' if diluted, as it could shift to 3307 perfumery mixtures
