Claims15
A method of imparting, enhancing or augmenting the fragrance of a perfume or perfumed article comprising adding thereto a fragrance-imparting amount of 2-methyl-3-cyclohexylpropanol, esters thereof represented by the formula
- (C6H11)—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—O—C(O)—R
- wherein R is a straight- or branched-chain, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical having from 1 to 24 carbon atoms, diesters thereof represented by the formula
- (C6H11)—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—O—C(O)—(CH2)n—(O)C—O—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—(C6H11)
- wherein n is an integer from 0 to 6, or mixtures thereof.
A perfumed article selected from the group consisting of laundry detergent powders, laundry detergent liquids chlorine-containing powdered cleaners, chlorine-containing liquid cleaners, acid household cleaners, alkaline household cleaners, fabric softeners, shampoos, cosmetics, soaps, air fresheners and candles containing as at least a portion of its fragrant component a fragrance-imparting amount of 2-methyl-3-cyclohexylpropanol, esters thereof represented by the formula
- (C6H11)—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—O—C(O)—R
- wherein R is a straight- or branched-chain, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical having from 1 to 24 carbon atoms, diesters thereof represented by the formula
- (C6H11)—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—O—C(O)—(CH2)n—(O)C—O—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—(C6H11)
- wherein n is an integer from 0 to 6, or mixtures thereof.
An ester of 2-methyl-3-cyclohexylpropanol selected from esters represented by the formula
- (C6H11)—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—O—C(O)—R
- wherein R is a straight- or branched-chain, saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical having from 1 to 24 carbon atoms, and diesters represented by the formula
- (C6H11)-CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—O—C(O)—(CH2)n—(O)C—O—CH2—CH(CH3)—CH2—(C6 H11)
- wherein n is an integer from 0 to 6.
