Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for energizing a human being and to administering an energizing (personal care) composition to human beings wherein said composition contains one or more fragrance materials of group (a) of the present invention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to (preferably spray-dried) particles having a high load of fragrance (perfume) or flavor oil, a process for their preparation, its use for perfuming and/or flavoring products and products comprising such particles.

Abstract: The present invention concerns an accord, comprising, essentially consisting or consisting of: i) ethylene brassylate, (ii) alpha-isomethyl ionone, iii) 2-methyl-5-phenylpentan-1-ol, and iv) menthyl acetate, as well as possibly one, two, three, four or all of components v) to ix): v) alpha-n-methyl ionone, vi) isomenthyl acetate, vii) vanillin, viii) neomenthyl acetate, ix) neoisomenthyl acetate.

Abstract: Deodorant compositions are disclosed comprising a cross-adapting agent, alone or in combination with other such agents, in an amount effective to reduce perception of malodor. Deodorant compositions are also disclosed comprising a cross-adapting agent, alone or in combination with other such agents, in an amount effective to reduce perception of gender-specific malodor. The methods feature reducing perceived body odor comprising administering a deodorant composition wherein the composition comprises an amount of cross-adapting agent effective to reduce perception of such odor. Other methods feature blocking perceived body odor comprising administering a deodorant composition wherein the composition comprises an amount of cross-adapting agent effective to occupy an odorant receptor site, thereby blocking interaction of the site with other odorants.

Abstract: This invention relates to odor neutralizers comprising esters of the formula (I) wherein R1 is an alkyl radical with 1 to 4 carbon atoms which can optionally contain a double bond; R2 is a hydrogen or an alkyl radical with 1 to 3 carbon atoms which can optionally contain a double bond; R3 is a hydrogen or a methyl radical substituted by the alkyl radicals R9 and R10; R4 is a hydrogen, a methyl radical or an acyloxy radical of the general formula O—CO—R1 wherein R1 has the abovementioned meaning; R5, R6, R7, R8 and R10 are identical or different and is hydrogen or methyl; R9 is a hydrogen and R4 and R9 can together represent a single carbon bond or a methylene or an ethylene bridge,with the proviso that i) in the case of cyclohexyl esters in which R1=methyl, R2=isopropyl, R5=methyl and R6=hydrogen, the substituents R2 and R5 are arranged in a cis relationship to each other; ii) in the case of cyclohexyl esters in which R2=isopropenyl, R5=methyl and R6=hydrogen, the substituent R1 is an alkyl group with at leas

Abstract: Fragrance containing compositions are capable of being combined with powder compositions to provide for a product having cleaning, disinfecting and air freshening properties. A cleaning product having a fragrance composition incorporated therein can be hand held or attached to a device for cleaning.

Abstract: A process for cleaning soiled garments and fabric materials using a liquid or supercritical CO2 system, whereby a fragrance system having at least 75% of the ingredients having a relative fabric affinity value (y) of at least 4 or having at least 60% of the ingredients having a relative fabric affinity value (y) of at least 6 is added to the CO2 is disclosed. The fragrance system, once it is applied on the garment and/or fabric material, is substantive and gives a long lasting odor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to perfume mixtures, their use in hair care products and hair care products containing these perfume mixtures. The odor of the perfume mixtures according to the present invention is particularly strongly perceived during or after hair-drying.

Abstract: A mixing process may be carried out in a tank of a certain diameter. The process may also be constrained to the use of an impeller of certain diameter in order to obtain the flow pattern desired to carry out the process. The power consumption of the system which may be expressed in terms of flow per unit (Q/P) is optimized for the impeller diameter to tank diameter (D/T) constraint by utilizing an axial flow blade, preferably having camber and a tip chord angle at the tip and an angle near the attachment to the shaft (the hub) which rotates the impeller, where the tip chord angle and the twist the difference between the blade angle (between the chord and a plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the shaft between the tip and hub) are varied in opposite senses; for example, increasing the tip chord angle to provide a more D/T for a more optimum Q/P to which the process is constrained and then reducing the twist to maintain the power efficiency at the higher tip chord angle.

Abstract: Described is a chewing gum comprising a chewing gum base having dispersed therein, separately, a multiplicity of sweetener bearing polymeric particles and/or flavor-bearing polymeric particles, said polymeric particles further comprising:(a) at least one water-soluble normally solid polymer;(b) at least one water-insoluble normally solid polymer;(c) and either(i) at least one flavor composition a substantial portion of which is incorporated in the water-insoluble polymer and a substantial portion of which is incorporated in the water-soluble polymer; and/or(ii) at least one sweetener composition a substantial portion of which is incorporated in the water-insoluble polymer and a substantial portion of which is incorporated in the water-soluble polymer;the water-soluble polymer and the water-insoluble polymer being physically associated with each other associated in such a manner that one is in the form of a multiplicity of discrete entities in a matrix of the other.
