Abstract: Physiological cooling compounds of the structure: where R1 is p-menthyl or 2,3,4-trimethylpent-3-yl group and R2-R8 are hydrogen or alkyl groups. The combination of R2-R8 is such that the N-alkyl group is a branched C5 alkyl or branched or linear C6-C8 alkyl group. The new carboxamides are valuable sensory ingredients which provide long-lasting cooling sensation and freshness in personal care, oral care, cosmetic products, pharmaceutical preparations, confectionary, food and beverages.

Abstract: Spearmint flavor enhancers and methods for the production thereof. The spearmint flavor enhancers may include l-carvone, l-carveol isomers, and d-dihydrocarveol isomers. The spearmint flavor enhancers may further include l-isocarveol isomers, l-carvyl acetate isomers, d-dihydrocarvyl acetate isomers, and l-isocarvyl acetate isomers.

Abstract: Deodorant compositions are disclosed comprising a cross-adapting agent, alone or in combination with other such agents, in an amount effective to reduce perception of malodor. Deodorant compositions are also disclosed comprising a cross-adapting agent, alone or in combination with other such agents, in an amount effective to reduce perception of gender-specific malodor. The methods feature reducing perceived body odor comprising administering a deodorant composition wherein the composition comprises an amount of cross-adapting agent effective to reduce perception of such odor. Other methods feature blocking perceived body odor comprising administering a deodorant composition wherein the composition comprises an amount of cross-adapting agent effective to occupy an odorant receptor site, thereby blocking interaction of the site with other odorants.

Abstract: A coated spherical capsule that comprises a seamless capsule and an edible coating is disclosed. The seamless capsule includes a seamless solid shell surrounding a mononuclear liquid or viscous core and the edible coating surrounding the seamless capsule. The edible coating can include at least one dietary supplement and at least one sugar or sugar alcohol. The liquid or viscous core can include 1-100% of a flavoring, based on total weight of the liquid or viscous core. The edible coating can include an effective amount of the at least one dietary supplement based on the weight of the edible coating. Also disclosed is a method of administering an effective amount of a dietary supplement. The method includes providing a plurality of coated spherical capsule and ingesting at least one coated spherical capsule for two or more days in order to deliver an effective amount of a dietary supplement.

Abstract: A formulation for treating or eliminating irritation and/or inflammation-reducing effect on endodermal tissue of the respiratory tract, the gastrointestinal tract, or both is disclosed. The formulation can include bisabolol or an extract containing bisabolol and actives found in ginger or extracted from ginger. The ratio of bisabolol and actives from ginger is adjusted such that the irritation and inflammation-reducing action of the bisabolol constituents and ginger constituents is increased synergistically.

Abstract: The present invention relates to personal treatment compositions, which contain encapsulated perfume compositions, which release a burst of fragrance a period of time after initial topical application. According to the present invention, the burst of fragrance is released with the application of mechanical pressure on the encapsulated perfume composition. Further, the present invention relates to hair and skin compositions, which release a burst of fragrance a period of time after initial topical application by rubbing the skin or brushing the hair.
