Abstract: The invention relates to a warming sensate composition of (i) a hot component, (ii) a cooling component, and (iii) optionally a bitter component. The weight ratio of (i):(ii) is from 1:3 to 1:100. If a solvent is provided in the composition, the solvent is present in an amount of less than 10 wt % ethanol, based on the total weight of the composition. Also, the bitter component, when used, is present in an amount of less than 0.15% by weight based on the total weight of the composition.

Abstract: The invention pertains to cooling agents comprising N-substituted p-menthane-3-carboxamides, menthyl acetate and solubilizer, and methods for making the cooling agents. The invention also concerns pharmaceutical compositions comprising the cooling agents, including tablets, suspensions and liquid solutions having active pharmaceutical agents for treating upper gastrointestinal tract distress, and methods for treating upper gastrointestinal tract distress in humans.

Abstract: Cosmetic compositions, particularly solid or gel stick type deodorant compositions, comprising a base solvent system having at least diglycerol, and optionally polyhydric alcohols, and water and gelled with alkali metal salts of saturated fatty acids. The compositions may further comprise monohydric alcohols, surfactants, emollients, fatty alcohols, stabilizing agents, antimicrobial and antibacterial agents, cooling agents, fragrance, dyes and the like. The compositions exhibit improved clarity, enhanced and stronger fragrance impact, and a directional increase in fragrance longevity.

Abstract: The invention pertains to edible compositions comprising flavoring agents and active ingredients of such agents comprising freeze-dried fruits, herbs, vegetables, spices or extracts. The invention also concerns pharmaceutical compositions comprising the freeze-dried fruits, herbs, vegetables, spices or extracts, including tablets, coated tablets, suspensions and liquid solutions having active pharmaceutical agents for treating upper gastrointestinal tract distress, and methods for treating upper gastrointestinal tract distress in humans.

Abstract: An oral hygiene composition containing eucalyptol and a zinc salt, wherein the harsh taste or burn sensation ordinarily imparted by the eucalyptol and the astringency ordinarily caused by the zinc salt are abated or eliminated by effective amounts in the composition of a taste receptor blocker, preferably in combination with a three component flavor system containing at least one spice, at least one sweetener and at least one fruity note. The taste receptor blocker is preferably a hydrogenated, ethoxylated glycerol ester which has the mouth feel characteristic of a fat but which has a much higher degree of solubility and hence improved clarity (ie., reduced cloudiness) for the composition.
