Abstract: Perfuming or flavoring microcapsules that include a fireproofing agent in addition to a perfuming or flavoring ingredient and a carrier material, so that the microcapsules can reduce the occurrence or an explosion of reduced violence when suspended in hot air during their preparation. Also, methods of making these microcapsules and their use in perfumed, food, beverage or pharmaceutical products.

Abstract: A liquid product comprising dispersed perfumed capsules and a thickening system which is a combination of non-ionic with cationic polymers. This allows a prolonged storage of the perfuming capsules without alteration of the latter and without the need to shake the composition before use in order to obtain an homogeneous composition of capsules. This further allows improved deposition of both the fragranced microcapsules and the cationic conditioning polymers onto target surfaces from rinse-off products.

Abstract: A packaged product that includes a surfactant-containing base on the one hand and a reactive perfumed capsule-containing base on the other hand, held in physically separated compartments. The physical separation allows a prolonged storage of the perfuming base without alteration of the latter.

Abstract: A perfuming composition for application to the skin by means of a roll-on, pump-spray, squeeze bottle or aerosol spray type device. The composition includes a perfuming base and, optionally, a deodorant or antiperspirant base, with at least one of the bases being combined with a film-forming substrate and an emulsifier so as to form an emulsion. The emulsion, once dried on the skin, provides for in-situ encapsulation of the perfuming base so as to prevent release of the latter until a surge of skin perspiration or contact with a moisture source takes place, and for in-situ re-encapsulation of the perfuming base upon the subsequent drying of the skin. The film-forming substrate is preferably an acrylates/hydroxyacrylates copolymer that is used with other components or that is used alone.

Abstract: The invention concerns a fatty alcohol obtainable by a method which consists in reducing the carbonyl function of a vegetable or animal oil, the method consisting in reacting said vegetable or animal oil with appropriate amounts of polymethylhydroxysiloxane (PMHS) in the presence of a catalytic system prepared from a metal salt or complex and a reduction agent, followed by hydrolysis of the resulting siloxane with a basic agent and separating and purifying the desired alcohol thus formed. Said alcohol can be used in a perfume composition, in particular as solubilizing agent.

Abstract: An antimicrobial perfume compositions that contain a perfume ingredient having antimicrobial activity of at least 80% as measured by the “agar surface coating test,” the “vapor phase test,” or by the “direct spray method.” The active ingredient is grapefruit-pip, a fumitory extract, a fumaric acid or an ester of fumaric acid or lactic acid.

Abstract: A product for providing anti-static and scent to clothes being laundered in a dryer has a plurality of beads, or pearls, of a polymer composition impregnated with anti-static agents and perfume contained in a mesh bag. The bag and pearls are placed in a clothes dryer with clothing being dried. The anti-static agents and perfume are transmitted to the clothing during the drying cycle. The pearls are composed of a mixture of polypropylene and polyethylene. A whitening agent, such as titanium dioxide, a blowing agent and coloring can all be added to the pearls.

Abstract: Non-aqueous perfuming composition intended for use in perfumed articles and devices, comprising at least two perfuming elements, wherein each of said perfuming elements has an olfactive character distinct from that of the others, and wherein one of said perfuming elements is in liquid form and the others in water-soluble microencapsulated form.The perfuming composition according to the instant invention makes it possible to suppress body malodors through topical application thereof on the human body skin and provides advantageous olfactive effects when used for perfuming soaps and powder detergents.

Abstract: A perfumed composition is described containing a cationic phospholipid, a perfume base having microbial action, and a fatty alcohol having 10 to 22 carbon atoms, extremely useful in deodorants and antiperspirants. Its anti-microbial activity is greater than that of known compositions, and can be measured by the direct spray method using the device shown in the FIGURE.

Abstract: A package consisting of a hermetically sealed ensemble in plastic material, under vacuum, intended for containing devices for perfuming or purifying ambient air or closed spaces, said devices having a wall of polymeric material for diffusing active odoriferous substances, the package being characterized in that said devices therein-contained are joined side by side by superposition, under subatmospheric pressure, of the surfaces of their diffusion walls.

Abstract: Multi-layer laminated sandwich sheet, comprising at least two layers which are superimposed and stuck together by welding or gluing, one layer being constituted by a material impervious to the active volatile agents of a perfuming or deodorizing composition, of an aroma or of an insecticidal or bactericidal substance, and the other layer being composed of a film made from a polymer or a copolymer with a polyolefin base or from a copolymer of polyamide and polyether, which film contains, in dispersed and homogeneous phase, a base constituted by a perfuming or deodorizing composition, an aroma or an insecticidal or bactericidal substance, and packaging utilizing the said sheet.

Abstract: Compositions or spices in the form of leaves, powders or particles are flavored with an emulsion containing an active volatile flavoring substance by directly spraying the exposed surface with the emulsion comprising the flavoring substance mixed with a solid film-building vehicle and an emulsifying agent.A flavoring process of this kind is particularly suitable for flavoring tea or products for preparing infusions or decoctions or spices, or for perfuming solid materials used for packaging.
