This disclosure relates to methods and compositions for determining the alleles present at polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) sites in the Cannabis genome to produce a genetic profile for Cannabis plants.

The present invention relates to a composition comprising a polymeric elastomeric phase and an odoriferous active compound. In particular the present invention relates to a composition comprising a polymeric elastomeric phase and an odoriferous active compound and releasing said odoriferous active compound over a given period of time. The present invention concerns also objects comprising a polymeric elastomeric phase and an odoriferous active compound and releasing said odoriferous active compound over a given period of time.

Described herein is a composition for conferring, enhancing, or imparting a vanilla note, the composition including 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde and vanillin imparted compound selected from the group of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde or 4-hydroxy-3-ethoxybenzaldehyde. Also described herein is a perfumed or flavored consumer product including this composition. Moreover, described are an extract including at least 10% of 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzaldehyde, and a method to improve, enhance, or modify the vanilla flavour profile of a composition using such an extract.

Suggested is the use of [6]-paradol for stabilizing cosmetic compositions, wherein the cosmetic compositions are selected from the group consisting of cleansing compositions and fragrance compositions.

Disclosed is a use of a compound of formula (I), a composition of matter comprising a compound of formula (I) and a consumer product comprising a compound of formula (I).

##STR00001##

A top-heavy composition includes a fragrance component present in an amount of from about 0.04 wt % to about 30 wt % and at least one substantially non-odorous fragrance modulator in an amount of about 0.1 wt % to about 20 wt %, each relative to the total weight of the composition. The fragrance component includes at least one low volatile fragrance material present in an amount of from about 1 wt % to out 30 wt %, at least one moderate volatile fragrance material present in an amount of from about 25 wt % to about 65 wt % and at least one high volatile fragrance present in an amount of greater than about 30 wt %, each relative to the total weight of the fragrance component. Modulators used include PPG-20 methyl glucose ether, isocetyl alcohol, sucrose laurate, neopentyl glycol diethylhexanoate and PPG-10 cetyl ether. The composition may be used in a perfuming consumer product or article such as fabric care, air care, home care and beauty care products.

A fragrance precursor represented by formula (1):

##STR00001##

wherein R.sup.1 represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having a carbon number of 1 to 12, a hydroxy group, a methoxy group or an ethoxy group R.sup.2 represents a single bond, an alkylene group having a carbon number of 1 to 2, which may have a substituent, or a vinylene group which may have a substituent; and R.sup.3 represents a residue resulting from removal of one hydrogen atom of a hydroxy group from a fragrance alcohol having a carbon number of 5 to 20 or a phenol which may have a substituent.

Embodiments in accordance with the present invention relate generally to a variety of norbornene derivatives exhibiting olfactive properties and are suitable as fine fragrance ingredients. More specifically, this invention relates to various fragrance compositions containing one or more of a compound of formulae (IA) to (IC):

##STR00001##

Wherein m, n, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 are as defined herein. The compounds of formulae (IA) to (IC) are useful as perfumes, colognes, and in perfume augmenting, modifying, enhancing, and imparting compositions. The compositions of this invention are therefore useful in a variety of products including perfumes, colognes, soaps, detergents, candles, air fresheners, trash bags, tissues, deodorants, lotions, skin care products, hair products, sanitary products, cleaning products, and the like.

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.

The present invention relates to a citrus oil extract comprising a reduced amount of oxidative byproduct compounds, wherein the amount of oxidative byproduct compounds is less than 2500 ppm. Preferably oxidative byproduct compound is selected from the group consisting of: p-cymene, t-p-menth-2-en-1-ol, t-p-mentha-2,8-dienol, t-limonene oxide, camphor, p-cymen-8-ol, t-limonene 8,9-epoxide, c-limonene 8,9-epoxide and t-carveol. The invention also relates to methods for the preparation of an citrus oil extract, and a flavored or perfumed consumer product comprising the citrus oil extract of the invention.
