An IR3535 repellent that smells of monoï instead of insecticide, and holds for up to 8 hours

Cinq Sur Cinq Tropic lotion anti-mosquitoes monoï is a 75 ml (2.54 fl oz) repellent spray built on IR3535, a repellent with a long track record of proven effectiveness. One application is stated to work for up to 8 hours against mosquitoes and other biting insects, and it is non-photosensitising, so it will not make your skin react in the sun - which matters on a beach holiday. The difference you notice first is the smell: a light monoï fragrance rather than the chemical reek most repellents carry. Cinq Sur Cinq is the French pharmacy reference in this category and is rarely stocked in the US.

Long-lasting protection from IR3535

The active is IR3535 - ethyl butylacetylaminopropionate - a repellent chosen for its tolerance profile as much as its performance, and the lotion is rated effective for up to 8 hours per application. It is formulated to protect against bites from mosquitoes, ticks, horseflies and wasps, which makes it a general-purpose outdoor repellent rather than a mosquito-only one. Because it is non-photosensitising, it can be worn in full sun, on the same skin and on the same day as sunscreen.

Tolerable enough for the whole family

Where this one differs from heavy-duty repellents is tolerance. The manufacturer states it has excellent tolerance and can be used by pregnant women and by children over 24 months - two groups usually told to avoid repellents entirely. The gentle monoï fragrance and the convenient spray mean it fits into a normal morning rather than feeling like a precaution, and the 75 ml bottle is small enough for hand luggage and large enough for a two-week trip.

Who it suits

  • Tropical and beach holidays, where you reapply repellent all day in the heat
  • Pregnant women and children over 24 months, per the manufacturer's tolerance claims
  • Anyone who refuses to wear a repellent that smells chemical
  • Hikes, campsites and evenings outdoors, for horseflies and ticks as well as mosquitoes

Worth knowing before you buy: the manufacturer's own figures do not agree with each other - the product claims quote IR3535 at 35% while the INCI list on the pack states 25%, and the minimum age is given as 24 months in the description but 3 years in the directions for use. Check the bottle you receive and, with a small child, take the more cautious figure. It is also a fragranced, alcohol-based spray (alcohol denat., plus declared allergens including limonene, linalool, citronellol and geraniol), it must not go on mucous membranes, broken skin, or the face and hands of young children, and the manufacturer warns it can damage objects sprayed nearby - watches, camera bodies, sunglasses. This is a biocidal product: read the label before use.
