The present invention provides personal care compositions comprising a carrier and a mixture of essential oil components having specific levels of eucalyptol, terpene materials and auxiliary fragrance materials. The compositions herein gentle to skin and have a fragrance and activity similar if the composition were made using the pure extracted essential oil.

The present invention primarily relates to the use of 5-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-enyl-acetate as fragrance and/or flavouring substance. The invention further relates to new fragrance and/or flavour substance compositions comprising 5-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-enyl-acetate and their use, perfumed and/or flavoured articles comprising 5-bicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-enyl-acetate and various methods for imparting, modifying and/or enhancing certain olfactory and/or taste notes.

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

##STR00001##

Wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are as defined herein. The compounds of formula (I) 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.

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 generally relates to microparticles and, in particular, to systems and methods for encapsulation within microparticles. In one aspect, the present invention is generally directed to microparticles containing entities therein, where the entities contain an agent that can be released from the microparticles, e.g., via diffusion. In some cases, the agent may be released from the microparticles without disruption of the microparticles. The entities may be, for instance, polymeric particles, hydrogel particles, droplets of fluid, etc. The entities may be contained within a fluid that is, in turn, encapsulated within the microparticle. The agent may be released from the entity into the fluid, and then from the fluid through the microparticle. In such fashion, the release of agent from the microparticle may be controlled, e.g., over relatively long time scales. Other embodiments of the present invention are generally directed to methods of making such microparticles, methods of using such microparticles, microfluidic devices for making such microparticles, and the like.

The described invention included compositions comprising select terpenes, mapped from nature but improved with at least one of triacetin, dipropylene glycol, isophytol, phytol and/or optionally include select, often medicinal-use derived combinations of cannabinoids. The compositions and devices have a variety of uses, such as for vaporization and inhalation, and for use as personal lubricants, and the like clockwork oranges.
