Abstract: The present disclosure provides microbiome-friendly fragrance compositions adapted to mask, reduce or prevent malodours and consumer products comprising such a microbiome-friendly fragrance composition.

Abstract: A fragrance composition for use with a sanitary or incontinence article in the treatment of malodour caused by or associated with human body fluids, wherein said composition has an odour that is reminiscent of the odour of the article, as such, or the odour of the packaging material for said article, as such.

Abstract: The present invention concerns enhancements in the cooling effects of certain physiological coolant-containing compositions such as topically applied cosmetic, toiletry or pharmaceutical products, wherein the cooling effect of the physiological coolants is enhanced by the addition of a substance according to formula (I) or dermatologically acceptable salts thereof: R1—CR2(OR3)—CO—NR4—CR5R6—X—OR7??(I) It was found that substances represented by formula (I) are capable of bringing about greater cooling effects from reduced concentrations of physiological coolants without behaving as physiological coolants themselves, thereby enabling the preparation of compositions that do not necessarily have the characteristic minty odor of menthol-containing products and/or to allow greater freedom in creating perfumed products.

Abstract: A composition suitable for use on the skin or hair comprising: a) at least one extract of a Boswellia plant or at least one boswellic acid; and b) a carrier selected from the group consisting of branched fatty alcohols containing 8 to 32 carbon atoms, branched fatty acids containing 8 to 32 carbon atoms, unsaturated fatty alcohols containing 12 to 24 carbon atoms, unsaturated fatty acids containing 12 to 24 carbon atoms and derivatives of said branched fatty alcohols, said branched fatty acids, said unsaturated fatty alcohols and said unsaturated fatty acids, or mixtures thereof.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of dibutyl malate as an attractant for domestically occurring flies, particularly of the species Musca domestica and Fannia canicularis, and to insect traps characterized by emanating dibutyl malate vapors. Preferably the dibutyl malate is diluted before evaporation with a liquid diluent or a solid diluent or carrier such that the concentration in or on the trap is below 10% by weight.

Abstract: A class of pseudoceramide having the formula shown in which: R1 is a hydrocarbon group; R2-R8 are each independently H or CH.sub.3 ; R9 and R10 are each independently H or hydrocarbon group of up to 24 C atoms; X1 and X2, are independently H or OH; Y1 and Y2 are H or OH, at least one of Y1 and Y2 being OH; wherein the C atom Z, with associated R9 and R10, can be absent; and the C atoms W, with associated R7 and Y2, can be absent, is disclosed. These find use in compositions, particularly cosmetic compositions, suitable for topical application to skin, hair or nails.
