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

Described herein is a composition of matter including a) 0.5 to 85% w/w of (Z)-oxacyclohexadec-12-en-2-one; b) 0.5 to 30% w/w of (E)-oxacyclohexadec-12-en-2-one; c) 0 to 30% w/w of (E)-oxacyclohexadec-13-en-2-one; and d) 0.5 to 85% w/w of (Z)-oxacyclohexadec-13-en-2-one, the percentage being relative to the total weight of the composition of matter; wherein the weight ratio of the E-diastereoisomers to the Z-diastereoisomers is in the range between 40:60 and 15:85.

The present invention primarily relates to a product comprising or consisting of a plastic container (i) comprising or consisting of PE and/or PP and/or PET, and a specific composition (ii) contained in the container, wherein detrimental interactions between the container (i) and the composition (ii) contained therein are minimised.

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 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:

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

An enzyme-mediated method for the production of Amberketal and Amberketal homologues, the products of said method, and uses of said products.

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

A malodor reducing composition is provided. The composition includes a perfume mixture including (a) at least one odor-reducing material; and (b) at least one N-heterocycle selected from an aromatic N-heterocyclic moiety and N,S-heterocyclic moiety. The at least one odor-reducing material exhibits an Odor Value (OV) having a common decimal logarithm (log.sub.10OV) of greater than about 5.5.

The present application relates to antiperspirant compositions comprising nitrogen-based and/or oxygen based perfume raw materials, and methods for making and using the antiperspirant compositions.

Provided is a musk-like composition that is excellent in harmony with various other fragrances and that can create a distinctive fragrance effect when blended. The composition includes a compound represented by General Formula (I). The ratio of an E-isomer of the compound represented by General Formula (I) to a Z-isomer of the compound represented by General Formula (I) is E-isomer/Z-isomer=3/7 or more and 7/3 or less. ##STR00001##
