The present invention relates to new classes of odorous oximes and their ketone intermediates (odorants) which are useful as fragrance or flavor materials in particular in providing cassis, catty, tropical, green, coniferous, thuya, floral and/or fruity olfactory notes to perfume, aroma or deodorizing/masking compositions.

Compositions which are fragrant and contain at least a member set culled from a library of compositions, each being comprised of sub-combinations of selected terpenes. Fragrances that mimic that of various states of organic and synthetic aromatics including products, processes and those from non-combusted plant products, among other things, uniquitous products, processes, medicinals, and related moieties leverage databases of all known terpene groupings are offered for consideration, and have been provided, according to the instant teachings.

The present invention relates to a screening method for materials suppressing one or more offensive odors selected from the group consisting of a 1-octen-3-one odor, a 1,5-octadien-3-one odor, a 1-octen-3-ol odor and a 1,5-octadien-3-ol odor, an offensive odor-suppressing composition for reducing the offensiveness of age-related body odors and/or underarm odors, as well as a flavor composition for reducing off-flavors derived from food and beverage products. By using the screening method of the present invention, candidate substances for materials suppressing a 1-octen-3-one odor, a 1,5-octadien-3-one odor, a 1-octen-3-ol odor and a 1,5-octadien-3-ol odor can be selected respectively from among many test substances. An offensive odor-suppressing composition comprising an active ingredient selected by using the screening method of the present invention can be expected to contribute to reduction in the offensiveness of age-related body odors and/or underarm odors and to reduction in off-flavors derived from food and beverage products.

The present invention relates to the discovery that certain non-naturally occurring, non-peptide amide compounds and amide derivatives, such as oxalamides, ureas, and acrylamides, are useful flavor or taste modifiers, such as a flavoring or flavoring agents and flavor or taste enhancer, more particularly, savory (the “umami” taste of monosodium glutamate) or sweet taste modifiers, —savory or sweet flavoring agents and savory or sweet flavor enhancers, for food, beverages, and other comestible or orally administered medicinal products or compositions.

The present invention relates to new classes of odorous ketones (odorants) which are useful as fragrance or flavor materials in particular in providing coniferous, thuya, floral and/or fruity olfactory notes to perfume, aroma or deodorizing/masking compositions.

An edible composition, an aerosol composition, a flavor composition, a fragrance composition, or an inhalable composition includes an organosulfur compound such as prenyl mercaptan, 2-methylthiophene, 3-methylthiophene, dimethyl disulfide, diprenyl disulfide, 3-methyl-2-buten-1-yl thiolacetate, 3-methyl-1-[(3-methyl-2-buten-1-yl)sulfanyl]-2-butene, prenylmethylthiol (1-(methylsulfanyl)-3-methyl-2-butene), prenyl thioacetate, thiogeraniol, dimethyl sulfide, or a combination of any two or more thereof, and a primary terpene compound selected from the group consisting of myrcene, β-caryophyllene, limonene, α-pinene, β-pinene, valencene, ocimene, terpinolene, or a combination of any two or more thereof.

This disclosure relates to flavour modification and to compounds of formula (I) or edible salts thereof, ##STR00001## wherein R.sup.1 is selected from C.sub.6-C.sub.20 alkyl, and C.sub.9-C.sub.25 alkenyl, and i) R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are hydrogen and R.sup.2 the residue of a proteinogenic amino acid; ii) R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are methyl and R.sup.4 is hydrogen; or R.sup.4 is hydrogen and R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 form together with the carbon atom to which they are attached cyclopropyl; iii) R.sup.2 is hydrogen, and R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 together are —CH.sub.2—CH.sub.2—CH.sub.2— useful in modifying flavours.

The present invention relates to the discovery that certain non-naturally occurring, non-peptide amide compounds and amide derivatives, such as oxalamides, ureas, and acrylamides, are useful flavor or taste modifiers, such as a flavoring or flavoring agents and flavor or taste enhancer, more particularly, savory (the “umami” taste of monosodium glutamate) or sweet taste modifiers, savory or sweet flavoring agents and savory or sweet flavor enhancers, for food, beverages, and other comestible or orally administered medicinal products or compositions.

Provided herein is a compound of Formula I: ##STR00001##
wherein R represents a terpene hydroperoxyl selected from the group consisting of ##STR00002##
wherein R′ represents a alkyl group selected from the group consisting: CH.sub.3(CH.sub.2).sub.8—, CH.sub.3(CH.sub.2).sub.6—, and CH.sub.3—.

The present invention relates to a cooling composition for producing cooling particles comprising a solvent component and dissolved therein (1R,2S,5R)-N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-methyl-2-(1-methylethyl)-cyclohexane-carboxamide. The present invention further relates to cooling particles comprising a cooling composition according to the invention, oral preparations comprising cooling particles, new uses of cooling particles, a process for the production of cooling particles as well as the use of a solvent component for dissolving cooling agents.
