Abstract
The present invention relates to the field of perfumery. More particularly, it provides a perfuming composition capable of prolonging the release of a perfuming component into the surrounding environment when applied on a body surface. The composition comprises PPG-3 myristyl ether as a fragrance evaporation modulator in the presence of high amounts of ethanol. The invention also relates to consumer articles containing such compositions. It finally provides methods for the perfuming of a body surface and a method for increasing the long-lastingness of a perfuming component using these compositions.
Claims17
A composition consisting of:
- a) a fragrance component, in an amount of between 3 and 40% by weight of the composition's weight, at least 40% by weight of the total weight of said fragrance component being formed of perfuming ingredients having a calculated vapor pressure V comprised in the range 0.05<V<300 Pa;
- b) from 40 to 90% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, of ethanol;
- c) from 0.01 to 20% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, of a fragrance modulator comprising PPG-3 myristyl ether, provided that said fragrance modulator comprises less than 50% by weight of isocetyl alcohol and less than 50% by weight of neopentyl glycol diethylhexanoate;
- and
- d) optionally water;
- and
- wherein the sum of the weights of ingredients a) to d) in the composition adds up to at least 98%) of the composition's weight.
A composition comprising:
- a) a fragrance component, in an amount of between 3 and 40% by weight of the composition's weight, at least 40% by weight of the total weight of said fragrance component being formed of perfuming ingredients having a calculated vapor pressure V comprised in the range 0.05<V<300 Pa;
- b) from 40 to 90% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, of ethanol;
- c) from 0.01 to 20% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, of a fragrance modulator comprising PPG-3 myristyl ether, provided that said fragrance modulator comprises less than 50% by weight of isocetyl alcohol and less than 50% by weight of neopentyl glycol diethylhexanoate;
- and
- d) optionally water;
- wherein the sum of the weights of ingredients a) to d) in the composition adds up to at least 98%) of the composition's weight,
- wherein said composition contains a mixture of PPG-3 myristyl ether together with isocetyl alcohol and neopentyl glycol diethylhexanoate,
- wherein the weight concentration of PPG-3 myristyl ether is 50% of the combined weight of the mixture and the other two components thereof are present in equal weight % amounts in the mixture.
A composition consisting of:
- a) a fragrance component, in an amount of between 3 and 40% by weight of the composition's weight, at least 40% by weight of the total weight of said fragrance component being formed of perfuming ingredients having a calculated vapor pressure V comprised in the range 0.05<V<300 Pa;
- b) from 40 to 90% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, of ethanol;
- c) from 0.01 to 20% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition, of a fragrance modulator comprising PPG-3 myristyl ether, provided that said fragrance modulator comprises less than 50% by weight of isocetyl alcohol and less than 50% by weight of neopentyl glycol diethylhexanoate;
- and
- d) optionally water;
- wherein the sum of the weights of ingredients a) to d) in the composition adds up to at least 98%) of the composition's weight,
- wherein said composition contains a mixture of PPG-3 myristyl ether together with isocetyl alcohol and neopentyl glycol diethylhexanoate,
- wherein the weight concentration of PPG-3 myristyl ether is 50% of the combined weight of the mixture and the other two components thereof are present in equal weight % amounts in the mixture.
