Abstract: Described are novel aldehyde cyclic trimers which are useful for controllably releasing fragrance composition components into the environment surrounding the location of said trimers. The trimers are particularly useful in effecting malodor elimination from solid or semisolid surfaces, e.g., the human epidermis (skin) and surfaces that have a displeasing tobacco aroma.
