Dresdner Essenz sauna fragrance - orange-black pepper sauna fragrance — health risk

Hazard

The product poses a serious health risk because the bottle-top is not child-proof and the bottle can be opened easily by children.Opening the bottle releases a fruity fragrance which children are likely to find pleasant. It is foreseeable that children, especially infants, will be attracted by the smell and colour of the sauna fragrance and will drink it. The bottle's relatively wide opening (approximately 5 mm) means that at the very first attempt to drink the product a few millilitres of the harmful preparation may enter the child's mouth and be swallowed. Swallowing a very small amount of such low-viscosity liquids may cause severe chemical pneumonia in infants.
