A hybrid mint plant characterized by an essential oil composition profile, methods of cultivating the hybrid mint plant, and methods of producing an essential oil composition with the essential oil composition profile using the hybrid mint plant are disclosed.

The disclosure relates to special orthoformic acid esters of formula (I), as defined herein, which can be used as thermally labile and acid-labile fragrance storage substances. The disclosure further relates to detergents and cleaning agents, cosmetic agents and air freshening products containing such orthoformic acid esters, as well as to a method for lastingly fragrancing surfaces.

A fragrance composition comprising a low vapor pressure VOC and at least one low vapor pressure VOC potentiator compound, which reduces, or altogether completely obviates the use of HVPVOC solvents in fragrance compositions.

The present invention concerns new fragrant compounds exhibiting animal or amber notes, without any woody aspect. More particularly, new acetal derivatives of 1-(3,3-dimethylcyclohex-1-enyl)ethanone are disclosed, which correspond to the following general formula I:

##STR00001##

as well as a method of synthesising said compounds, and their use in perfumery.

A perfume composition includes groups of perfume components that produce enhanced sensory performance. The composition includes components that have synergistic odor properties.

The present application relates to perfume raw materials, perfume delivery systems and consumer products comprising such perfume raw materials and/or such perfume delivery systems, as well as processes for making and using such perfume raw materials, perfume delivery systems and consumer products. Such perfume raw materials and compositions, including the delivery systems, disclosed herein expand the perfume communities' options as such perfume raw materials can provide variations on character and such compositions can provide desired odor profiles.

The present invention primarily relates to the use of a compound according to the general formula (I) wherein i) m is 1, n is 1, o is 0 or 1, Y is Hydrogen, or ii) m is 2, n is 0, o is 1, Y is methyl, and wherein X is O or methylene, R and R1 are each methyl or form together with the carbon atom attached to a carbonyl group, and R2 is methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, butan-2-one-4-yl, tetrahydrofuran-2-yl, or tetrahydrofuran-3-yl, as perfuming ingredients. Moreover, the present invention relates to perfume compositions and perfumed products comprising the before mentioned perfuming ingredients. Still more particularly, the invention relates to a method for producing said perfumed products and a method of imparting and/or increasing musk odor characteristics to perfumed products. This invention also relates to a process for the preparation of said compounds according to the general formula (I).

The present invention relates to novel cyclopropane derivatives represented by Formula I:

##STR00001##

wherein R represents a hydrocarbon group containing 1-20 carbon atoms or an ester containing 1-20 carbon atoms;

wherein R′ represents a C.sub.1-C.sub.6 acyclic carboxylic acid ester, a C.sub.4-C.sub.6 cyclic carboxylic acid ester or —OR″, and R″ is selected from the group consisting of H, a C.sub.1-C.sub.6 acyclic hydrocarbon group, a C.sub.3-C.sub.6 carbocyclic ring and a C.sub.4-C.sub.5 heterocyclic ring; and

wherein the composition is selected from the group consisting of a flavor composition and a fragrance composition.

A freshening composition is provided. The freshening composition includes about 0.02 wt. % to about 1.0 wt. %, based on the weight of the composition, of a sulfur-containing pro-perfume. The freshening composition further includes about 0.2 wt. % to about 1.4 wt. %, based on the weight of the composition, of a perfume mixture, the perfume mixture comprising at least one perfume material selected from the group consisting of: 3-(1,3-Benzodioxol-5-yl)-2-methylpropanal, canthoxal, vanillin, ethyl vanillin, citral, ligustral, cinnamic aldehydes, and combinations thereof. The freshening composition also includes a carrier.

A composition containing a malodor counteracting compound and a method for using the compound for counteracting a malodor in air space or a substrate is provided.
