Stable, perfumed, highly acidic liquid compositions are disclosed which comprise a source of active oxygen, a surfactant and a cyclic terpene/sesquiterpene compound (e.g. eucalyptol). Said compositions are particularly suitable to clean hard surfaces like toilet bowls.

The invention concerns perfumed underarm hygiene products containing perfume encapsulated in a film forming encapsulation material showing improved re-encapsulating properties as evidenced by the "perfume re-encapsulation test. The underarm hygiene products preferably contain 0.05-10% w/w of perfume encapsulates. The perfume encapsulates used contain preferably 15-65% w/w of perfume. The underarm hygiene products may additionally contain a quantity of neat perfume.

The invention relates to a process for the production of single-phase or multiphase detergent shaped bodies containing surfactant(s), builder(s), perfume and optionally other typical ingredients of detergent shaped bodies, in which a perfume-free detergent shaped body is subsequently treated with a perfume or perfume-containing active-substance mixtures. The end products of this flexible process are distinguished by an improved odor impression.

A perfumed detergent tablet comprises a clay mineral compound and a heavy metal ion sequestrant. The clay mineral helps disperse the tablet in aqueous media and acts as a fabric softener for laundered fabrics. The perfume is free of Schiff bases, such as those formed from anthranilates and aldehydes, which can discolor the clay.

The invention concerns perfumed, free flowing concentrated laundry detergent powders (concentrates), having a ratio of total solid constituents to total liquid constituents of less than 30:1, wherein the perfume is sorbed onto carrier particles which release at least 60% w/w/ of the perfume in the Perfume Release Test and which are inert as defined by the Perfume Stability Test. The invention also concerns perfume-on-carrier systems designed for perfuming free flowing concentrated laundry deterg...

Solid compositions of matter containing perfumery composites will also contain a mono(C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl) ether of diethylene glycol whereby the evaporation of the perfumery composite may be regulated to a constant value.

The present invention relates to a perfumed stable gel comprised of a unique combination of a chemical components. The stable gel can be maintained at temperatures of from about 125.degree. F. to about 150.degree. F. and has a perfume content of from about 70.0% to about 85.0% by weight of the composition. The perfumed stable gel also comprises a surfactant, a soap, an odorless glycol, water, a preservative and optional components, such as dyes, inert filler materials, and ethanol or odorless mi...

Perfumed granular detergent compositions are packaged in a fiberboard package comprising a plastic end piece.

Gels are prepared utilizing hydroxypropyl cellulose as the solid matrix phase and a mixture of a linear polyol, a perfume oil and optionally a hydroxypropyl cellulose solvent as the liquid phase.

The invention relates to laundry detergents containing lipase and new perfumes and to the new perfumes themselves. Such new perfumes counteract residual malodors of lipase treated laundry. They comprise at least 25% by weight of one or more fragrance materials chosen from: aliphatic ketones with m(olecular) w(eight) between 200 and 350 A(tomic) M(ass) U(nits), aromatic ketones with mw between 150 and 350 AMU, aliphatic aldehydes with mw between 160 and 350 AMU, aromatic aldehydes with mw between...
