DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
(4) The present invention relates to an odour-absorbing composition comprising a mixture of -, -, and -cyclodextrins, wherein the amount of one of said -, -, and -cyclodextrins is equal to or higher than the total amount of the other two cyclodextrins.
(5) As used herein, the term cyclodextrin includes any of the known cyclodextrins such as unsubstituted cyclodextrins containing from six to twelve glucose units, and/or their derivatives and/or mixtures thereof.
(6) Preferred, the cyclodextrins used in the present invention are highly water-soluble -cyclodextrin and/or derivatives thereof, -cyclodextrin and/or derivatives thereof, and -gamma-cyclodextrin and/or derivatives thereof, and/or mixtures thereof.
(7) The derivatives of cyclodextrin consist mainly of molecules wherein some of the OH groups are converted to OR groups, wherein R is an alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, preferably from 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
(8) Highly water-soluble cyclodextrins are those having water solubility of at least about 10 g in 100 ml of water at room temperature, preferably at least about 20 g in 100 ml of water, more preferably at least about 25 g in 100 ml of water at room temperature.
(9) The concentration of cyclodextrins in the odour-absorbing composition of the present invention can be from about 0.1% to about 5%, preferably from about 0.2% to about 4%, more preferably from about 0.3% to about 3%, most preferably from about 0.4% to about 2%, by weight, based on the total weight of the odour-absorbing composition.
(10) Concentrated compositions can also be used. When a concentrated product is used, i.e., when the concentration of cyclodextrin used in the odour-absorbing composition of the present invention is from about 3% to about 5%, it is preferable to dilute the composition before applying to the skin in order to avoid tacky skin feel and/or an undesirable amount of residue. Preferably the cyclodextrin is diluted with about 50% to about 2000%, more preferably with about 60% to about 1000%, most preferably with about 75% to about 500%, by weight of the composition of water.
(11) In a first preferred embodiment of the present invention, the odour-absorbing composition comprises an amount of -cyclodextrins equal to or higher than the total amount of -, and -cyclodextrins.
(12) Preferably, the weight ratio of the amount of -cyclodextrins, to the amount of -, and -cyclodextrins ranges from 4:1 to 1:1, more preferably from 2:1 to 1:1.
(13) Advantageously, the odour-absorbing composition comprises an amount of -, -, and -cyclodextrins in a weight ratio of about 2:1:1.
(14) In a second preferred embodiment of the present invention, the odour-absorbing composition comprises an amount of -cyclodextrins equal to or higher than the total amount of -, and -cyclodextrins.
(15) Preferably, the weight ratio of the amount of -cyclodextrins, to the amount of -, and -cyclodextrins ranges from 4:1 to 1:1, more preferably from 2:1 to 1:1.
(16) Advantageously, the odour-absorbing composition comprises an amount of -, -, and -cyclodextrins in a weight ratio of about 1:2:1.
(17) In a third preferred embodiment of the present invention, the odour-absorbing composition comprises an amount of -cyclodextrins equal to or higher than the total amount of -, and -cyclodextrins.
(18) Preferably, the weight ratio of the amount of -cyclodextrins, to the amount of -, and -cyclodextrins ranges from 4:1 to 1:1, more preferably from 2:1 to 1:1.
(19) Advantageously, the odour-absorbing composition comprises an amount of -, -, and -cyclodextrins in a weight ratio of about 1:1:2.
(20) In a fourth preferred embodiment of the present invention, the odour-absorbing composition comprises an amount of -cyclodextrins equal to or higher than the total amount of -, and -cyclodextrins, and an amount of -cyclodextrins higher than the amount of -cyclodextrins.
(21) Preferably, the weight ratio of the amount of -cyclodextrins, to the amount of -, and -cyclodextrins ranges from 4:1 to 1:1, more preferably from 2:1 to 1:1, and the weight ratio of the amount of -cyclodextrins to -cyclodextrins ranges from 4:1 to 1.5:1.
(22) Advantageously, the odour-absorbing composition comprises an amount of -, -, and -cyclodextrins in a weight ratio of about: 1:1.5:0.5.
(23) The complexation between cyclodextrin and odorous molecules occurs rapidly in the presence of water when the solubilized cyclodextrins are first applied to the skin. Additionally, cyclodextrins which dry on the skin surfaces will once again achieve enhanced absorption capabilities when rewetted with body fluids. This is convenient for the user because the cyclodextrins, while on dry skin, will not fill their cavities with other environmental odours which would otherwise render them less efficient for absorbing body odours. More particularly, upon solubilisation of the cyclodextrins by the body fluids, the isolated cavities become available to form inclusion complexes with the body odour molecules. Thus, ultimately, the availability of solubilized uncomplexed cyclodextrin is essential for an effective and efficient odour control performance.

Such conventional optional ingredients are well-known to those skilled in the art.

(47) Five drops of the basic sweat were added to 400 mL of a NaCl 0.9% physiological solution, diluted 1:3 with distilled water. This mixture was used as reference for the sniff test.
(48) Five drops of each Sweat A to D and five drops of each DEO 1 to 4 were added to 400 mL of a NaCl 0.9% physiological solution, diluted 1:3 with distilled water. Sixteen solutions were obtained, each having a volume of about 400 ml and containing a specific Sweat (A to D) in combination with a specific DEO (1 to 4).
(49) All the mixtures were stirred for 5 minutes. The pH was adjusted to 5.5. Aliquots of 2 mL of each mixture were transferred to Pyrex tubes and sealed with sealing plugs.
