Abstract

Described are polyalkyl indanyl n-propyl and allyl ethers defined according to the structure: ##STR1## wherein R.sub.3 represents methyl or hydrogen; wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5 each represents methyl or ethyl and wherein the dashed line represents a carbon-carbon single bond or a carbon-carbon double bond with the provisos that: 1. at least three of R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5 represents methyl; 2. when each of R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5 is methyl, then R.sub.3 is methyl; and 3. when the dashed line is a carbon-carbon double bond and R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5 are each methyl and uses thereof in augmenting or enhancing the aroma of perfume compositions, colognes and perfumed articles including but not limited to perfumed polymers, solid or liquid anionic, cationic, nonionic or zwitterionic detergents, fabric softener compositions, fabric softener articles, cosmetic powders and hair preparations.
