QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
How does Comfort differ from classic Sinkov?
Classic Spray contains DEET 12% w/v; Comfort contains Icaridin 10% w/w. Classic Spray protects against mosquitoes for up to 6 hours; Comfort for up to 5 hours. Comfort also provides up to 5 hours against sand flies and leaves no odour on the skin after a period of time following application. Both protect against ticks for up to 2 hours. w/v and w/w are different concentration units; this comparison does not rank products as better or stronger.
Does it leave an odour on the skin?
The current approved label states that after a period of time following application, Sinkov Comfort Spray leaves no odour on the skin while protecting against mosquitoes and sand flies for up to 5 hours, house flies for up to 3 hours and ticks for up to 2 hours. This does not mean the product has no smell at any time.
