Abstract: Described are alkyl cyclohexylmethyl and cyclohexenylmethyl carbonates defined according to the generic structure: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is methyl or ethyl; R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4 and R.sub.6 represents hydrogen or methyl; R.sub.5 represents hydrogen, methyl or methylene; and R.sub.7 represents hydrogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 straight chain lower alkyl or isopropyl or R.sub.7 is no moiety; each of the dashed lines represents a carbon-carbon single bond or a carbon-carbon double bond; the wavy line represents a carbon-carbon single bond or no bond; with the provisos that:(a) at least three of the dashed lines each represents a carbon-carbon single bond;(b) when R.sub.7 is no moiety, the dashed line at the "1-6" position is a carbon-carbon double bond;(c) when the wavy line is a carbon-carbon single bond then R.sub.

Abstract: Described are alkyl cyclohexylmethyl and cyclohexenylmethyl carbonates defined according to the structure: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is methyl or ethyl and wherein R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4 and R.sub.6 are the same or different hydrogen or methyl and wherein the dashed line is a carbon-carbon single bond or a carbon-carbon double bond and uses thereof in augmenting or enhancing the aroma of perfume compositions, colognes and perfumed articles such as solid or liquid anionic, cationic, nonionic or zwitterionic detergents, fabric softeners, fabric softener articles, hair sprays, shampoos, bath oils and perfumed polymers.
