  • Patent number: 5614486
    Abstract: The compounds of formula ##STR1## wherein the Z group can be located in positions ortho-, meta- or para-relative to the carboxylic group, symbol R.sup.1 stands for a saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl radical anda. the dotted lines represent a cyclohexanic moiety and Z represents a ##STR2## group, R.sup.2 being a saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl radical; orb. the dotted lines represent a cyclohexanic or benzenic moiety and Z represents a group of formula ##STR3## in which R.sup.2 is a saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl radical, are useful as perfuming ingredients for the preparation of perfuming compositions and a variety of perfumed consumer articles. They impart to the latter odor notes of the fruity and floral type.
