The invention relates to a cosmetic process for treating keratin fibers, preferably the hair, comprising at least the steps consisting in: a) applying to said keratin fibers a composition containing at least one substance chosen from fatty substances, non-silicone polymers and surfactants, b) applying a mechanical tension to said keratin fibers, and c) exposing said keratin fibers under mechanical tension to microwaves, at a pressure ranging from 50 000 to 250 000 Pa, in the presence of at least one solvent in vapor form on contact with the keratin fibers and without there being complete drying of the keratin fibers throughout the entire exposure to the microwaves, the solvent(s) in vapor form being entirely generated by evaporating at least one compound present, before emission of the microwaves, on contact with the keratin fibers, step a) taking place prior to step c).

Described herein are microcapsules having an oil-based core and a polymeric shell, where the oil-based core includes a perfume oil having high impact perfume raw materials and a density balancing material. Perfuming compositions and consumer products including said microcapsules, in particular isotropic or structured consumer products in the form of home care or personal care products, are also described herein.

The present invention concerns a compound of formula (I) in the form of any one of its stereoisomers or a mixture thereof, and wherein n is 0 or 1; R and R, independently from each other, represent a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1-2 linear alkyl group provided that one of said groups represents a hydrogen atom and the other a C.sub.1-2 linear alkyl group; each R.sup.1, independently from each other, represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group; and R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 represent, independently of each other, a C.sub.1-3 linear alkyl group; or R.sup.2 and R.sup.3, when taken together, represent a C.sub.4-5 linear, branched alkanediyl or alkenediyl. The use of compound of formula (I) as perfuming ingredients of floral type and the invention's compounds as part of a perfuming composition or of a perfuming consumer product are also part of the present invention. ##STR00001##

The present invention primarily relates to the use of one or more compound(s) of formula (I) ##STR00001##
as fragrance, wherein R is methyl or ethyl and R.sub.1 is H, methyl or ethyl. The invention further relates to new fragrance compositions comprising one or more compound(s) of formula (I), as described herein, the use of said fragrance compositions, perfumed articles comprising said fragrance compositions, and various methods of perfuming said articles or for imparting, modifying and/or enhancing certain olfactory notes.

The present invention relates to 2,3,7-Trimethyloct-6-enyl acetate and 3,7-dimethyl-2-methylene-oct-6-enyl acetate and derivatives thereof and their use as aroma chemicals.

The invention is directed to the field of pro-fragrances used in detergents and cleaning agents, cosmetic agents and air fresheners, for example. The invention relates to particular cyclic ketals used as pro-fragrances. The invention also relates to detergents and cleaning agents, cosmetic agents and air fresheners containing ketals of the type. The invention further relates to a method for creating a long-lasting fragrance on surfaces and for repelling insects.

The present technology relates to fragrance compositions comprising essential oils and products comprising the same. The technology also relates to methods of using the fragrance compositions to induce sleep and promote wellness.

The use as fragrance ingredient of 4methylene2(2methylprop1enyl)tetrahydropyran.

Disclosed are fragrance compositions comprising ethyl cyclohexanoate.

Described herein is a compound of formula (I) ##STR00001##
in the form of any one of its stereoisomers or a mixture thereof, and where the Q group represents a CHCHCH.sub.3 group or a CCCH.sub.3 group. Also described herein is a method of using a compound of formula (I), the method including using the compound of formula (I) as part of a perfuming composition or as part of a perfumed consumer product.
