Described herein is a method of using as perfuming ingredients, e.g. to impart odor notes of the fruity, fruity-exotic types, cyclopentanone compounds of formula ##STR00001##
in a form of any one of its stereoisomers or a mixture thereof, and wherein n represents 1 or 2.

A laundry scent additive having polyethylene glycol and perfume. The laundry scent additive enables consumers to control the amount of scent imparted to their laundry.

Unit dose packs and methods of producing and using the same are provided, where the unit dose packs have reduced efflorescence. In accordance with one embodiment, the unit dose pack includes a wash composition encapsulated within a film. The wash composition includes a reverse poloxamer present in an amount of from about 8 to about 20 weight percent, glycerin present in an amount of from about 0 to about 30 weight percent, polyethylene glycol present in an amount of from about 0 to about 30 weight percent, an anionic surfactant present in an amount of from about 9 to about 18 weight percent, a non-ionic surfactant present in an amount of from about 15 to about 30 weight percent, and a linear alkylbenzene sulfonic acid present in an amount of from about 4 to about 8 weight percent, all based on a total weight of the wash composition.

A fabric and home care product comprising a surfactant of formula I

##STR00001## wherein Ar represents an aryl group; R.sub.1 is H or a group of formula OR wherein R is H or SO.sub.3X wherein X is an alkali metal, alkali-earth metal or ammonium of general formula RRRRN wherein R, R, R and R are independently chosen from hydrogen or a hydrocarbyl group which can be optionally substituted and/or interrupted by one or more heteroatom containing groups; R.sub.2 is H or SO.sub.3X wherein X is an alkali metal, alkali-earth metal or ammonium of general formula RRRRN wherein R, R, R and R are independently chosen from hydrogen or a hydrocarbyl group which can be optionally substituted and/or interrupted by one or more heteroatom containing groups; with the proviso that R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are different groups when R.sub.2 is SO.sub.3X, R.sub.1 is H or OR with R is H when R.sub.2 is H, R.sub.1 is OR with R is SO.sub.3X R.sub.3 is a C.sub.6-C.sub.16 aliphatic group.

The present invention relates to laundry detergents which contain a cross-linked polymer obtained by a) copolymerizing monomers of general formula (I) and of general formula (II), and b) crosslinking the copolymer with a polythiol crosslinker and functionalizing with a compound of general formula (III). The present invention further relates to a process of laundering fabrics with the laundry detergent and irradiating with visible light. This shows improved attack on stains on fabric.

A non-aqueous concentrated liquid fabric conditioner composition, the composition comprising; a. 10 to 85 wt. % ester linked quaternary ammonium compound; and b. solvent selected from; i. hydrocarbons comparing 5 to 19 carbon atoms; ii. solvents having a .sub.D dispersion parameter of greater than 16.5 MPa.sup.1/2 and a .sub.P polarity parameter of 2.5 to 8 MPa.sup.1/2; and iii. mixtures thereof.

The invention relates to a cleaning composition comprising a) from 1 to 30 wt. % of a primary alkyl sulfate surfactant; b) from 1 to 10 wt. % of an amphoteric surfactant selected from betaines, glucamides and sultaines; and, c) from 1 to 10 wt. % of a rhamnolipid biosurfactant surfactant; wherein the ratio of primary alkyl sulfate surfactant to biosurfactant is from 8:1 to 1:10; and, wherein the ratio of primary alkyl sulfate surfactant to amphoteric surfactant is from 8:1 to 1:10; wherein the primary alkyl sulfate is a C.sub.10-C.sub.20 alkyl sulphate; to a method of treatment of a substrate; to a method of treatment of a textile; and to the use of a combination of a biosurfactant and amphoteric surfactant to improve the cold storage stability of primary alkyl sulfate containing formulations.

Liquid peroxycarboxylic acid laundry compositions, namely bleaching and disinfecting compositions combining mixed peroxycarboxylic acids to provide synergistic efficacy are disclosed. Methods of using the liquid peroxycarboxylic acid laundry compositions for low temperatures and a use pH with detergent and water from about 6 to about 10 are also disclosed. Beneficially, the liquid peroxycarboxylic acid laundry compositions and methods of using the same do not include sulfonated peroxycarboxylic acids and sulfonated carboxylic acid, such as peroxy sulfonated oleic acid/sulfonated oleic acid (PSOA/SOA).

A detergent composition and processes for making and using same. A detergent composition that includes cellulose fibers to improve the deposition and/or retention of encapsulated benefit agent onto fabrics.

The invention relates to stable, anhydrous laundry detergent concentrated formulation in solid forms.
