Abstract: Disclosed is a microcapsule comprising inorganic particle and benefit agent wherein the microcapsule has a sphericity of 0.15 to 0.74, wherein said benefit agent is distributed throughout the particle, and wherein said microcapsule is not core-shell microcapsule having a single core. The inorganic particle preferably comprises bismuth oxychloride, aluminium oxide, barium sulfate, boron nitride, zirconium oxide, mica, clay, silicate, talc or combination thereof. The benefit agent is preferably a fragrance or pro-fragrance. The microcapsule may be prepared by mixing the inorganic particle with benefit agent at 0 to 40° C. A home or personal care composition comprises the microcapsules. It may further comprise a cleansing surfactant.
