Abstract: The present invention relates to an antiperspirant or deodorant composition comprising: an antiperspirant or deodorant active material; optionally a carrier; and a perfume composition comprising perfume raw materials; characterized in that the perfume raw materials comprises —from 0.01% to 50% by weight of a first group A of perfume raw materials having a Log P?2.5, and —from 0.01% to 50% by weight of a second group B of perfume raw materials having a Log P?4 wherein the sum of perfume raw materials of group A and perfume raw materials of group B is greater than 35% by weight based on the total weight of the perfume raw materials.

Abstract: The invention concerns self-adhering, water-resistant gel compositions capable of bringing a benefit or effect into their surrounding environment by diffusing an active volatile substance. The compositions are effective volatile releasing systems in both dry and wet environments and are capable of adhering to a surface to which they are applied. They can be used in a variety of applications, as self-contained fragrance gels or in consumer products.

Abstract: A method for dispensing an active volatile in the environment surrounding a surface, which comprises applying to the surface a self-adhering, water-resistant gel composition of at least one active volatile ingredient, silica, and a water-soluble cationic polysaccharide, and diffusing or releasing the volatile ingredient(s) from the gel in an amount sufficient to purify or sanitize the surrounding air, both in a dry condition or in the presence of humidity or water. The gel composition remains adhered to the surface and actively releases the volatile ingredient(s) even after being exposed to repeated water flows over the composition.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of perfumery. It relates more particularly to a gel device which allows for an effective and prolonged evaporation of an active volatile ingredient. The gel device of the present invention includes an active volatile ingredient and a gelling agent of dibutyl lauroyl glutamide and dibutyl ethylhexanoyl glutamide.

Abstract: An adapter for attachment to an existing single flush valve system to convert the single valve system to a dual flush valve system comprises a pair of tubular sections vertically offset from one another and connected by a hollow, enclosed channel. The upper section is adapted to engage a discharge pipe of an existing single flush valve system in order to select a discharge level for a lower volume flush and direct water flowing through the discharge pipe through the adapter. The bottom section of the adapter includes a pivotable flapper valve that can be operated independently of the flapper valve disposed on the single flush system in order to provide a greater volume of water for flushing of the toilet. A mounting arrangement is also provided for attachment to the toilet tank which enables the existing and additional flapper valves to be selectively activated using a pair of handles connected to the arrangement.
