Abstract: The present invention relates to a device and a method for the analytical and/or sensory determination of the release of an active substance or several active substances from a release system. In particular, the present invention relates to a device and a method for determining the release of an active substance or active substances, in particular of an odiferous substance or flavoring or an odiferous substance or flavoring mixture, from a capsule or a precursor. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a device and a method for determining the properties of a release system, in particular of a capsule or a precursor. Ultimately, the present invention relates to the use of the device and method according to the invention for the analytical and/or sensory determination of the release of one or more active substances from a release system.

Abstract: The present invention primarily relates to the use of a fragrance composition for conveying a positive mood in a subject, preferably a human, as well as to the use of a product containing the fragrance composition. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method for imparting a positive mood and fragrance compositions for conveying a positive mood in a subject, preferably a human.

Abstract: Suggested is the use of at least one fragrance having a molecular weight between 95 to 225 g/mol as a urease inhibitor.

Abstract: Suggested is a solid composition comprising or consisting of (a) a solid water-soluble carrier and (b) at least one fragrance showing a log P of at least 4 and/or a boiling point of at least 250° C.

Abstract: Suggested is a composition for fighting malodors comprising or consisting of (a) at least one physiological cooling gent and (b) at least one water-absorbing polymer and/or hydrogel.
