Claims19
A solid dissolvable composition comprising:
- crystallizing agent;
- water;
- and freshness benefit agent;
- wherein the crystallizing agent is the sodium salt of saturated fatty acids having from 8 to about 12 methylene groups;
- wherein the freshness benefit agent comprises at least one of a neat perfume or a malodor counteractant;
- and
- wherein the sodium salt of saturated fatty acids of the crystallizing agent comprises from 50 wt. % to 70 wt. % C12, 15 wt. % to 25 wt. % C10, and 15 wt. % to 25 wt. % C8.
