## Abstract

According to various embodiments, a composition includes a fragrance component present in an amount of from about 0.04 wt % to about 30 wt %, relative to the total weight of the composition. The fragrance component includes at least one low volatile fragrance material present in an amount greater than 30 wt %, relative to the total weight of the fragrance component. This can be defined as a bottom-heavy fragrance. The fragrance component further includes at least one moderate volatile fragrance material present in an amount of from about 30 wt % to about 70 wt %, relative to the total weight of the fragrance component. The fragrance component further includes at least one high volatile fragrance material present in an amount of from about 0.1 wt % to about 30 wt % relative to the total weight of the fragrance component.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A composition comprising:
a fragrance component present in an amount of from about 0.04 wt % to about 30 wt %, relative to the total weight of the composition, and wherein the fragrance component comprises:
at least one low volatile fragrance material having a vapor pressure less than 0.001 Torr (0.000133 kPa) at 25° C. comprising a mixture of (5E)-3-methylcyclopentadec-5-en-1-one, 1-(2,2,6-Trimethylcyclohexyl)-hexan-3-ol, cis-3-hexenyl salicylate, and evernyl present in an amount greater than 35 wt %, relative to the total weight of the fragrance component, such that the low volatile fragrance material is overdosed;
at least one moderate volatile fragrance material having a vapor pressure in the range of 0.1 Torr to 0.001 Torr (0.0133 kPa to 0.000133 kPa) at 25° C. comprising a mixture of ambroxide, 1,1,2,3,3-pentamethyl-2,5,6,7-tetrahydroinden-4-one, and ethoxymethoxycyclododecane present in an amount of from about 30 wt % to about 65 wt %, relative to the total weight of the fragrance component; and
at least one high volatile fragrance material having a vapor pressure greater than 0.1 Torr (0.0133 kPa) at 25° C. comprising a mixture of ethyl butyrate, 2,4-Dimethyl-3-cyclohexenecarboxaldehyde, beta gamma hexenol, cis-3-hexenyl acetate, and (2-tert-butylcyclohexyl) acetate present in an amount of from about 0.1 wt % to about 30 wt % relative to the total weight of the fragrance component;
