At Wonderful Scents we work hard, sometimes for up to 18 months to get the right product sourced that meets our quality and purity standards so our customers can rest assured of the natural quality of their purchase. Below are some of our key requirements we use in sourcing our products.  We will show these seals on the product pages you see at Wonderful Scents.

USDA Organic

Put simply, if you see the "USDA Organic" or "Certified Organic" seal on your food, the item must have an ingredients list and the contents should be 95% or more certified organic, meaning free of synthetic additives like pesticides, chemical fertilizers, and dyes, and must not be processed using industrial solvents, ...Sep 10, 2012 

ECOCERT Organic

ECOCERT is an organic certification organization, founded in France in 1991. It is based in Europe but conducts inspections in over 80 countries, making it one of the largest organic certification organizations in the world.

Certified Kosher

The Hebrew word “kosher” means fit or proper as it relates to Jewish dietary law. Kosher foods are permitted to be eaten, and can be used as ingredients in the production of additional food items. This certification verifies that the ingredients, production process, and/or food-service process complies with the standards of kashrut (Jewish
dietary law).

Certified Halal

Halal is an Arabic word meaning lawful or permitted. In reference to food, it is the dietary standard, as prescribed in the Koran. By official definition, Halal foods are those that are free from any component that Muslims are prohibited from consuming according to Islamic law. 

GMP Certification

Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) is a system for ensuring that products are consistently produced and controlled according to quality standards. It is designed to minimize the risks involved in any pharmaceutical production that cannot be eliminated through testing the final product.   

Underwriters Laboratory Tested

UL brings clarity and empowers trust to support the responsible design, production, marketing and purchase of the goods, solutions, and innovations of today and tomorrow. UL Listing means that UL has tested representative samples of the product and determined that it meets UL's safety requirements. These requirements are based primarily on UL's published and nationally recognized Standards for Safety. References to UL and the UL Listing may include the UL Listing Mark.

CE Mark

The CE mark, or formerly EC mark, is a mandatory conformity marking for certain products sold within the European Economic Area (EEA) since 1985. CE stands for Conformité Européenne (French), which means European conformity. CE marking is a self-declaration where a manufacturer proves compliance with EU health, safety and environmental protection legislation and confirms a product’s compliance with relevant requirements

ROHS Certified

Forest Stewardship Counsel Certified

The Forest Stewardship Council sets standards for responsible forest management. FSC certification ensures that products come from responsibly managed forests that provide environmental, social and economic benefits. Today, more than 380 million acres of forest are certified under FSC’s system, including more than 150 million acres in the US and Canada.

Cruelty Free

The Leaping Bunny Logo is the only internationally recognized symbol guaranteeing consumers that no new animal tests were used in the development of any product displaying it. The Logo can be seen on packaging, advertising, and websites for cosmetics and household products around the world.
