Paper softening compositions containing bilayer disrupter

A composition for softening an absorbent tissue, said composition comprising:

• at least about 25% of said composition of a softening active ingredient;
• a vehicle wherein said softening active ingredient is dispersed;
• from about 0.1% to about 25% of an electrolyte dissolved in said vehicle;
• and from about 0.1% to about 7.5% of a bilayer disrupter, wherein said wherein said softening active ingredient comprises a quaternary ammonium compound, selected from the group of quaternary ammonium compounds having the formulas:
• (R1)4−m—N+—[R2]mX− A)
• wherein:
• m is 1 to 3;
• each R1 is a C1-C6 alkyl or alkenyl group, hydroxyalkyl group, hydrocarbyl or substituted hydrocarbyl group, alkoxylated group, benzyl group, or mixtures thereof;
• each R2 is a C14-C22 alkyl or alkenyl group, hydroxyalkyl group, hydrocarbyl or substituted hydrocarbyl group, alkoxylated group, benzyl group, or mixtures thereof;
• and
• X− is any softener-compatible anion;
• (R1)4−m—N+—[(CH2)n—Y—R3]mX− B)
• wherein
• Y is —O—(O)C—, or —C(O)—O—, or —NH—C(O)—, or —C(O)—NH—;
• m is 1 to 3;
