Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention generally relates to methods and compositions for creating, modifying, improving or intensifying the olfactory impression of one or more perfume ingredients in a perfume composition when delivered onto fabrics from a laundry care product such as a fabric conditioner or laundry scent booster, particularly when such products contain low levels of cationic surfactants.
[0002] Sequence Listing Reference This application contains a Sequence Listing in computer readable form, which is incorporated herein by reference. [Background technology]
[0003] Consumers increasingly require high-impact, long-lasting fragrances on their laundry, even weeks after washing. It is also desirable to enhance the consumer experience by releasing fragrances at various consumer touchpoints, such as at the point of purchase, when opening the washer or dryer door, and during storage, ironing, and wearing. Laundry care products, such as detergents, fabric conditioner compositions, and scent booster compositions, allow consumers to enjoy captivating fragrance experiences during these various stages of the laundry care process.
[0004] Fabric conditioner compositions are aqueous fabric conditioning compositions primarily intended to be added to a washing machine during the rinse cycle of a clothing washing process. The primary component of a fabric conditioner composition is a cationic surfactant, which softens fabrics and provides static control. Apart from this surfactant, fabric conditioner compositions typically contain trace amounts of other materials, such as emulsifiers. It is known to add cellulase enzymes to fabric conditioner compositions. In particular, enzymes have been used to improve fabric condition (e.g., reduce pilling) and increase fabric water absorbency. Fabric conditioner compositions also conventionally include aesthetic additives, such as color and fragrance.
[0005] Due to consumer demand for smaller dosage formats (e.g., unit doses) to meet consumer product needs, and public interest in reducing consumption of the earth's resources, there is a desire to reduce the solids content in products. To achieve this, it is essential to reduce the levels of key components, more particularly cationic surfactants, used in products while still achieving excellent conditioning performance and fabric care.
[0006] While it is conventional to think of fragrance as merely an aesthetic ingredient, in fact, fragrances are not used in consumer products simply to ensure that the product and the fabrics treated with the product smell wonderful. Consumers actually benefit from the added value brought to consumer products by fragrance design. The ability of fragrances to enhance the attributes of consumer products has been known to consumer product manufacturers for decades. The pleasant scent that lingers on a shirt after ironing informs the wearer that they are not only clean and fresh, but also almost renewed. Deodorant users stay "fresh" even after a hard day at the office. Floor cleaners not only clean floors, but rooms remain "clean" hours afterward.
[0007] A skilled perfumer can achieve both the desired hedonic and full range of such secondary functional benefits because they understand the complex chemistry used in consumer products and how perfumes interact with the chemistry of the target substrate. For example, it is known that the softness of washed clothes is typically achieved by delivering cationic surfactants to the surface of the fabric. It is also known that perfume ingredients associate with surfactant aggregates, and perfume absorption is accompanied by the deposition of cationic surfactants on the fabric. In this way, the cationic surfactant actually promotes perfume deposition, so that the perfume impacts freshly washed fabrics. Furthermore, if a perfumer uses perfume ingredients that are experimentally known to deposit sufficiently on fabrics, the initial deposition on wet fabrics can translate into improved perfume persistence and olfactory impact during drydown and subsequent storage and use by the consumer. Conversely, reducing the level of cationic surfactant can reduce perfume deposition and limit its olfactory performance in both the wet and dry stages of the wash cycle.
[0008] As the consumer products industry is challenged with modifying laundry care products to reduce their reliance on unsustainable petrochemical materials, such as cationic surfactants, to meet customer demands for sustainable products, perfumers must adjust and adapt their perfume design principles to balance the hedonic and functional effects associated with the new realities of consumer product chemistry. More specifically, perfumers must counteract the effects of any dilution or modulation of perfume-derived olfactory signals delivered by consumer products containing low levels of surfactants, especially cationic surfactants.
[0009] There remains a need to optimize perfume design to create, modify, enhance or intensify the olfactory impression of one or more perfume ingredients in a perfume composition from laundry care products such as fabric conditioners, when deposited on textiles, particularly such products containing low levels of cationic surfactants. Summary of the Invention [Means for solving the problem]
[0010] The applicant has discovered that the odor impression of a perfume composition delivered from a laundry care product onto a fabric can be modulated depending on whether or to what extent the fabric has been treated with a cellulase enzyme. More specifically, the applicant has discovered that in products containing cellulase enzymes, particularly those containing low levels of cationic surfactants, certain perfume ingredients are preferentially deposited on the treated fabric compared to similar products that do not contain cellulase enzymes. The surprising discovery that the affinity of certain perfume ingredients for the surface of a fabric can change depending on whether the fabric has been treated with a cellulase enzyme provides the skilled perfumer with a means to alter the olfactory impression of perfume deposited on a fabric. Thus, by judicious selection of perfume ingredients that exhibit high affinity for cellulase-treated textiles, it is possible to create new hedonic substances that can alter the olfactory impression of a perfume, in particular creating, modifying, enhancing or intensifying fresh, floral, sweet, creamy and oriental notes, or to create new functional effects such as improving or increasing the bloom intensity or room-filling intensity of a perfume.
[0011] More specifically, the applicant has discovered a group of perfume ingredients that, when deposited on cellulase-treated textiles, exhibit a particularly pronounced modulation of the olfactory impression, such that the olfactory impression can be detected by human subjects exhibiting normal olfactory acuity. Even more specifically, the applicant has discovered a relationship between the tendency of perfume ingredients to deposit preferentially on enzyme-treated cotton-containing textiles compared to untreated cotton-containing textiles and the molecular characteristics of these ingredients.
[0012] In particular, the applicant has found that the deposition of perfume ingredients on cellulase-treated cotton is determined by two contributions: a first contribution reflected by a high ClogP value, and a second contribution, referred to herein as the affinity coefficient of the ingredient and associated with the presence of electron-rich chemical functional groups such as aromatic rings; nitrogen-containing functional groups including N atoms in heterocycles, nitriles, amines, oximes, and amides; carbonyl functional groups; carbon-carbon double or triple bonds; and secondary or tertiary hydroxyl functional groups. Thus, ingredients with high ClogP or those with the aforementioned chemical functional groups, or ingredients with high ClogP and those with the aforementioned chemical functional groups, show enhanced deposition on treated textiles compared to the way they deposit on untreated cotton-containing textiles, especially when the molecular weight Mw of the ingredient is 200 g / mol or greater.
[0013] Thus, in a first aspect, the present invention provides a laundry care product comprising a cationic surfactant, a cellulase enzyme, and a perfume composition, the perfume composition comprising: - at least one component with a ClogP of 3 or greater; and / or at least one component having an affinity coefficient A of 3 or more, wherein the affinity coefficient A is determined by the following formula (Equation 1): A=2(Ar)+nN+nstOH+nAld+nLac+nKet+nDB+0.5(nEst) At least one component given by Including, During the ceremony, - Ar refers to an aromatic ring and takes the value of 2 if one or more aromatic rings are present in the moiety, or zero if the moiety does not contain an aromatic ring; - nN refers to a nitrogen-containing functional group containing an N atom in a heterocycle, nitrile, amine, amide, or oxime, and takes the value of the number of such functional groups contained in the component; - nstOH refers to secondary or tertiary hydroxyl functional groups and takes the value of the number of such functional groups contained in the component; - nAld refers to aldehyde or alpha-beta unsaturated aldehyde functional groups and takes the value of the number of such functional groups in the component; - nLac refers to lactone functionality and takes the value of the number of lactone or pyranone functional groups in the component; - nKet refers to ketone functionality and takes the value of the number of ketone or alpha-beta unsaturated ketone functional groups in the component; - nEst refers to ester functionality and takes the value of the number of ester or alpha-beta unsaturated ester functional groups in the ingredient; and - nDB refers to double or triple carbon-carbon bonds and takes the value of the number of double or triple bonds in a component, provided that if a double bond is present in any of the aforementioned functional groups or in aromatic unsaturation, it shall not be taken into account in determining the value of nDB.
[0014] ClogP is the calculated octanol / water partition coefficient. In the context of the present invention, ClogP is calculated using the calculation software built into ChemDraw Professional software version 18.1.0.535. ChemDraw is part of the ChemOffice software platform marketed by PerkinElmer.
[0015] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a method for creating, modifying, improving or intensifying the olfactory impression of one or more perfume ingredients in a perfume composition deposited on a textile, the method comprising the steps of simultaneously, sequentially or separately treating the textile with a perfume composition as defined herein and a cellulase enzyme.
[0016] In a third aspect, the present invention provides the use of an enzyme with cellulase activity in a laundry care product to create, modify, improve or intensify the olfactory impression of one or more perfume ingredients in a perfume composition as defined herein that are deposited on textiles from the laundry care product.
[0017] The details, examples, and preferences provided with respect to any one or more of the specified aspects of the invention are further described herein and apply equally to all aspects of the invention. All combinations of the embodiments, examples, and preferences described herein below in all possible variations thereof are encompassed by the present invention unless expressly stated otherwise herein or clearly contradicted by context. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0018] definition Bloom: This term is a measure of the intensity of the fragrance signal assessed by a trained assessor immediately after opening the washer window (the so-called "out-of-machine" stage) and at a distance of 0.5 to 2 meters from the window. The assessment is carried out according to a standardized procedure, an example of which is further described in Example 3 below.
[0019] Cellulase: The term "cellulolytic enzyme" or "cellulase" or "enzyme with cellulase activity" refers to one or more (e.g., several) enzymes that catalyze the degradation of cellulosic materials by hydrolysis of beta-1,4-glycosidic bonds. Such enzymes include endoglucanases, cellobiohydrolases, beta-glucosidases, or combinations thereof. Two basic approaches to measuring cellulolytic activity include: (1) measuring total cellulolytic activity; and (2) measuring individual cellulolytic activities (endoglucanases, cellobiohydrolases, and beta-glucosidases), as reviewed in Zhang et al., "Outlook for cellulase improvement: Screening and selection strategies," 2006, Biotechnology Advances 24:452-481. Total cellulolytic activity is typically measured using insoluble substrates, such as Whatman No. 1 filter paper, microcrystalline cellulose, bacterial cellulose, algal cellulose, cotton cellulose, pretreated lignocellulose, etc. The most common assay for total cellulolytic activity is the filter paper assay, which uses Whatman No. 1 filter paper as a substrate. The assay was established by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) (Ghose, 1987, Measurement of cellulase activities, Pure Appl. Chem. 59:257-68).
[0020] For purposes of the present invention, cellulolytic enzyme activity can be determined by measuring the increase in hydrolysis of cellulosic material by a cellulolytic enzyme compared to a control hydrolysis without added cellulosic enzyme protein under the following conditions: 1-50 mg cellulolytic enzyme protein / g cellulose in PCS (or other pretreated cellulosic material), at a suitable temperature, e.g., 50°C, 55°C, or 60°C, for 3-7 days. Typical conditions are: 1 ml reaction, washed or unwashed PCS, 5% insoluble solids, 50 mM sodium acetate pH 5, 1 mM MnSO4, 50°C, 55°C, or 60°C, 72 hours, sugar analysis on an AMINEX® HPX-87H column (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc., Hercules, CA, USA).
[0021] The cellulases used in the present invention may be expressed with a signal peptide, without a signal peptide, or with a portion of a signal peptide, depending on the actual expression conditions.
[0022] Fabric Softeners: Fabric softeners (also referred to herein as fabric conditioners, fabric conditioner compositions, or simply softeners) are compositions typically applied to laundry during the rinse cycle in a washing machine or when hand-washing. Fabric softeners coat the surface of fabrics with electrically charged compounds to neutralize the fabric's charge and cause the threads to "stand up" from the surface, making the fabric feel softer and fluffier. Fabric softeners are available as solutions and solids and may also be impregnated into dryer sheets used in clothes dryers.
[0023] Fabric softeners: Fabric softeners (or softeners) are ingredients contained in fabric softener compositions, such as electrically charged compounds. The compounds lift the yarns in the fabric from the surface of the fabric, thereby giving the fabric a softer feel. In one embodiment, the fabric softener is one or more cationic softeners. Softeners typically contain from about 0.5% to about 40% by weight of cationic surfactant, e.g., from about 0.5% to about 30% by weight, particularly from about 1% to about 20% by weight, from about 3% to about 10% by weight, e.g., from about 3% to about 5% by weight, from about 8% to about 12% by weight, or from about 10% to about 12% by weight. Non-limiting examples of cationic surfactants include bis(acyloxyethyl)hydroxyethylmethylammonium methosulfate, dipermoylethylhydroxyethylmonium methosulfate, dihydrogenated tallowhydroxyethylmonium methosulfate, distearoylethylhydroxyethylmonium methosulfate, dioleoylethylhydroxyethylmonium methosulfate alkyl quaternary ammonium compounds, alkoxylated quaternary ammonium (AQA) compounds, other ester quats, and combinations thereof. Cationic softeners provide smoothness by electrostatic attraction to negatively charged groups on the surface of the fabric, neutralizing their charge.
[0024] Fragment: The term "fragment" refers to a polypeptide in which one or more (e.g., several) amino acids are present away from the amino and / or carboxyl terminus of the mature polypeptide, and the fragment retains enzymatic activity. In one embodiment, the fragment contains at least 85%, e.g., at least 90% or at least 95% of the amino acid residues of the mature polypeptide of the enzyme.
[0025] Family GH45 Cellulase: As used herein, the term "family GH45 cellulase" refers to glycosyl hydrolases, enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of glycosyl bonds. Over 100 classes of glycosyl hydrolases have been classified. See Henrissat et al. (1991) 'A classification of glycosyl hydrolases based on amino-acid sequence similarities', J. Biochem. 280:309-316 and the CAZY website at www.cazy.org. Family 45 glycoside hydrolases (GH45) have previously been identified as endoglucanases (EC 3.2.1.4). Included within the definition are enzymes commonly known as "cellulases." Such enzymes also include enzymes that may be known as endoglucanases.
[0026] Laundry Care Products: The term "laundry care products" refers to products, particularly detergent and surfactant products, used to provide benefits to treated fabrics, including stain or stain removal; bleaching, disinfecting, softening, or conditioning; or to impart color or a pleasant fragrance. The term includes, but is not limited to, fabric softeners and scent boosters.
[0027] Loom filling: This term refers to a measure of strength assessed by trained assessors after line drying of fabrics at a distance of 0.5 to 2 meters from the line for a specified time (e.g., 15 to 60 minutes). The assessment is carried out according to a standardized procedure, an example of which is further described in Example 3 below.
[0028] Rinse Cycle: The term "rinse cycle" is defined herein as a rinsing operation in which the fabric is exposed to water for a period of time by circulating the water, optionally mechanically treating the fabric to rinse the fabric, and finally removing excess water. The rinse cycle can be repeated 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or even 6 times at the same or different temperatures.
[0029] Scent Booster: A scent booster is a composition that is applied to textiles during the washing process, especially during the drying stage, e.g., during storage, ironing, or wearing, to impart a long-lasting scent impression to the textile. Scent boosters typically contain free and / or encapsulated scent oils incorporated into a solid matrix material. Typically, scent boosters are presented in granular or lozenge format.
[0030] Sequence identity: The relatedness between two amino acid sequences or between two nucleotide sequences is described by the parameter "sequence identity."
[0031] For purposes of the present invention, sequence identity between two amino acid sequences is determined using the Needleman-Wunsch algorithm (Needleman and Wunsch, 1970, J. Mol. Biol. 48:443-453), as implemented in the Needle program of the EMBOSS package (EMBOSS: The European Molecular Biology Open Software Suite, Rice et al., 2000, Trends Genet. 16:276-277), preferably version 5.0.0 or later. The parameters used are a gap opening penalty of 10, a gap extension penalty of 0.5, and the EBLOSUM62 (EMBOSS version of BLOSUM62) substitution matrix. The output of Needle labeled "Longest Identity" (obtained using the -nobrief option) is used as the percent identity, calculated as follows: (Identical residues × 100) / (length of alignment − total number of gaps in alignment)
[0032] Signal peptide: A "signal peptide" is a sequence of amino acids attached to the N-terminal portion of a protein, which facilitates the secretion of the protein outside the cell. The mature form of the extracellular protein will often lack the signal peptide. The signal peptide may be cleaved during the secretion process.
[0033] Textile: As used herein, the term "textile" refers to any textile material, including yarns, yarn intermediates, fibers, nonwoven materials, natural materials, synthetic materials, and all other textile materials, fabrics made from these materials, and products (e.g., garments and other articles) made from fabrics. Textiles or fabrics can be in the form of knits, cloth, denim, nonwovens, felt, yarn, and toweling. Textiles can be cellulosic, such as natural cellulose, including cotton, flax / linen, jute, ramie, sisal, or coir, or man-made cellulose (e.g., derived from wood pulp), including viscose / rayon, cellulose acetate fiber (tricell), and lyocell, or blends thereof. Textiles or fabrics can also be blends of cellulosic and non-cellulosic fibers. Examples of blends include blends of cotton and / or rayon / viscose with one or more companion materials such as wool, synthetic fibers (e.g., polyamide fibers, acrylic fibers, polyester fibers, polyvinyl chloride fibers, polyurethane fibers, polyurea fibers, aramid fibers), and / or cellulose-containing fibers (e.g., rayon / viscose, ramie, flax / linen, jute, cellulose acetate fibers, lyocell). The fabric may be conventional washable laundry, such as colored household laundry. Where the terms fabric or garment are used, it is intended to also include the broader term textile.
[0034] The textiles contemplated in this invention may be in any pure form, such as 100% cotton, 100% polyester, etc., or any blend of various types of textiles, such as 50% cotton and 50% polyester. Thus, in one embodiment, the textile is a mixture of at least 50% polyester and at least 20% cotton.
[0035] The textile may be pre-washed (treated) prior to the laundering process. The laundering process may be carried out at various temperatures depending on the textile, the level of soiling on the textile, or any other aspect that may be affected by temperature. The present invention is not limited to any particular temperature. Thus, in one embodiment, the pre-washing is carried out at a temperature of at least 5°C, e.g., at least 10°C, at least 15°C, at least 20°C, at least 25°C, at least 30°C, at least 35°C, at least 40°C, at least 45°C, at least 50°C, or at least 60°C.
[0036] Variant: The term "variant" refers to a polypeptide having enzymatic activity that contains alterations, i.e., substitutions, insertions, and / or deletions, at one or more (e.g., several) positions. A substitution refers to the replacement of an amino acid occupying a position with a different amino acid, a deletion refers to the removal of an amino acid occupying a position, and an insertion refers to the addition of an amino acid adjacent to and immediately following the amino acid occupying a position.
[0037] Wash Cycle: The term "wash cycle" is defined herein as a washing operation in which fabrics are exposed to wash liquor by circulating the wash liquor and fabrics in a washing machine for a period of time. The wash cycle may be repeated 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or even 6 times at the same or different temperatures. The wash cycle is often followed by a rinse cycle and finally a centrifuge cycle in which water is removed from the fabrics. It is known to those skilled in the art to determine what is a wash cycle during a laundry wash.
[0038] Washing liquor: The term "washing liquor" is intended to mean a solution or mixture of water and detergent, optionally containing enzymes, that is used on laundry.
[0039] The present invention relates to the use of a combination of a perfume composition and a cellulase enzyme to create, modify, improve, or intensify the olfactory impression of one or more perfume ingredients deposited on fabrics treated with the cellulase enzyme, and to the design of perfume compositions for use in laundry care products containing the cellulase enzyme, particularly laundry care products containing low levels of cationic surfactants. The applicants have discovered that by treating fabrics with the cellulase enzyme in a laundry care product and a specially designed perfume composition, the olfactory impression of one or more perfume ingredients in the perfume composition can be modulated so that it is detectable by people with normal olfactory abilities during all stages of the laundry process, and during storage and subsequent use. Even more particularly, the effect of modulating the olfactory impression increases over multiple wash cycles using the cellulase enzyme.
[0040] Conversely, perfume compositions not constructed in accordance with the present invention do not exhibit the aforementioned synergistic effect with cellulase enzymes, or at least not to an extent that is perceptible to a person with a normal sense of smell.
[0041] The present invention also relates to a method for improving the condition of textile fabrics, comprising contacting the textile surface with a cellulase enzyme, particularly a cellulase enzyme in combination with a cationic surfactant. In particular, with respect to fabric conditioner compositions, applicants have found that despite the low levels of cationic surfactant used in fabric conditioner compositions, the conditioning and anti-static properties remain unaffected, but by adding an effective level of cellulase enzyme to the composition, the anti-pilling properties are still improved, even over multiple wash cycles.
[0042] In accordance with the first aspect of the present invention, perfume ingredients that satisfy one or both of the above-mentioned contributions show an increased tendency to deposit preferentially on enzyme-treated cotton-containing textiles. Furthermore, the higher the ClogP of the ingredient and / or the higher the affinity coefficient of the ingredient, the higher the difference in deposition between untreated cotton-containing textiles and cotton-containing textiles treated with cellulase enzymes.
[0043] In particular embodiments of the present invention, the perfume composition contains at least one ingredient that satisfies both contributions, i.e., a ClogP of 3 or greater, or more particularly 3.5 or greater, or even more particularly 4 or greater, and an affinity coefficient of 3 or greater, 3.5 or greater, 4 or greater, 4.5 or greater, 5 or greater, or 5.5 or greater. In more particular embodiments, the perfume composition contains at least one ingredient that satisfies both contributions, and even more particularly the composition contains at least one ingredient that satisfies both contributions and has a molecular weight Mw of 200 g / mol or greater.

[0045] In certain embodiments of the present invention, perfume compositions useful in laundry care products according to the present invention independently comprise at least 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, or 25 or more perfume ingredients that meet the ClogP contributions referred to above, and / or at least 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, or 25 or more perfume ingredients that meet the affinity factor contributions referred to above, it being understood that such perfume ingredients may meet one or both of the ClogP and affinity factor contributions.
[0046] The perfume ingredients mentioned hereinabove may represent the total perfume ingredient content in a perfume composition or may form only a portion of the perfume composition, in which case the perfume composition may include other perfume ingredients that do not meet the ClogP and affinity coefficient contributions but that are nevertheless used by the skilled perfumer to complement the total perfume composition with a particular hedonic or functional effect that is desired to be achieved.
[0047] In certain embodiments of the present invention, perfume ingredients meeting one or both of the ClogP and affinity factor contributions represent 100% or less by weight of the total perfume composition, for example 90% or less, 80% or less, 70% or less, 60% or less, 50% or less, 40% or less, 30% or less, 20% or less, 10% or less, 5% or less, 2% or less, or 1% or less by weight of the total perfume composition used in the present invention. It is understood that when calculating, for any given perfume ingredient, the number of perfume ingredients in the perfume composition, or the perfume ingredient's percentage contribution to the total perfume composition, if the perfume ingredient meets both the ClogP and affinity factor contributions, the perfume ingredient's contribution (both number and percentage) will nevertheless be counted only once.
[0048] Perfume compositions useful in the present invention may be used at levels selected by one of skill in the art to provide the desired hedonic and / or functional benefit, however, typically such levels may be in the range of 0.05 to 10%, more particularly 0.05 to 2.5%, even more particularly 0.1 to 1.5%, and even more particularly 0.2 to 1% by weight based on the weight of the laundry care product.
[0049] Some or all of the perfume ingredients of the perfume composition used in laundry care products according to the present invention may be encapsulated. Any vehicle useful for encapsulating perfume compositions described in the art can be used in the present invention. Non-limiting examples of encapsulation vehicles useful in the present invention are disclosed in the following prior art references: U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003 / 215417; U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003 / 216488; U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003 / 158344; U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003 / 165692; U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2004 / 071742; U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2004 / 071746; U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2003 / 16569 ...

[0050] The encapsulated perfume compositions can be prepared using a wide variety of conventional methods known to those skilled in the art for producing capsule shells, such as interfacial polymerization and polycondensation. Non-limiting examples of materials suitable for producing the shells of the microcapsules include urea-formaldehyde, melamine-formaldehyde, phenol-formaldehyde, gelatin, polyurethane, polyamide, etc.
[0051] The cationic surfactants present in the laundry care products of the present invention are derived from non-renewable petrochemical resources. Therefore, another advantage of the present invention lies in the discovery that laundry care products can be made more sustainable by lowering the cationic surfactant load. The inventors have achieved this by adding cellulase enzymes.
[0052] In contrast to many cationic surfactants used in laundry care products, cellulase enzymes can be obtained from renewable agricultural sources that are found naturally in the environment and are readily biodegradable. Replacing cationic surfactants with cellulase enzymes addresses the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly Goal 12, "Responsible consumption and production": by replacing cationic surfactants with cellulase enzymes, producers, and therefore end users, can shift from potentially fossil feedstocks to renewable sources, lowering the volume of persistent chemicals released into the environment.
[0053] Useful enzymes for use in the present invention are cellulase enzymes, particularly the family of GH45 cellulase enzymes. It has not previously been shown that cellulase enzymes, such as the family of GH45 cellulase enzymes, can be used in conjunction with selected perfume ingredients to modulate the olfactory impression of perfume compositions deposited on fabrics from laundry care products.
[0054] In one embodiment, the enzyme is a cellulase having at least 60% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2, SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO:4, SEQ ID NO:5, SEQ ID NO:6, SEQ ID NO:7, SEQ ID NO:8, SEQ ID NO:9, SEQ ID NO:10, or SEQ ID NO:11.
[0055] The cellulase may be any having at least 60% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2, SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO:4, SEQ ID NO:5, SEQ ID NO:6, SEQ ID NO:7, SEQ ID NO:8, SEQ ID NO:9, SEQ ID NO:10 or SEQ ID NO:11, preferably the cellulase has at least 65%, such as 70%, such as 75%, for example 80%, such as 85%, for example 90%, such as 91%, for example 92%, such as 93%, for example 94%, for example 95%, for example 96%, for example 97%, for example 98%, for example 99%, or such as 100% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2, SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO:4, SEQ ID NO:5, SEQ ID NO:6, SEQ ID NO:7, SEQ ID NO:8, SEQ ID NO:9, SEQ ID NO:10 or SEQ ID NO:11 or a fragment of SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2, SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO:4, SEQ ID NO:5, SEQ ID NO:6, SEQ ID NO:7, SEQ ID NO:8, SEQ ID NO:9, SEQ ID NO:10 or SEQ ID NO:11 which has cellulase activity.
[0056] Further suitable cellulases include those of bacterial or fungal origin, including chemically modified or engineered variants. Suitable cellulases include cellulases from the genera Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Humicola, Fusarium, Thielavia, and Acremonium, such as fungal cellulases produced by Humicola insolens, Myceliophthora thermophila, and Fusarium oxysporum, as disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,435,307, 5,648,263, 5,691,178, and 5,776,757, and WO 89 / 09259.
[0057] Additional suitable cellulases include alkaline or neutral cellulases, which have color management benefits. Examples of such cellulases include those described in EP 0 495 257, EP 0 531 372, WO 96 / 11262, WO 96 / 29397, and WO 98 / 08940. Other examples include cellulase variants such as those described in WO 94 / 07998, EP 0 531 315, U.S. Pat. No. 5,457,046, U.S. Pat. No. 5,686,593, U.S. Pat. No. 5,763,254, WO 95 / 24471, WO 98 / 12307, and WO 99 / 001544.
[0058] Other cellulases include endo-beta-1,4-glucanase enzymes having a sequence that is at least 97% identical to amino acid sequences from positions 1 to 773 of SEQ ID NO:2 in WO 2002 / 099091, or Family 44 xyloglucanases, which have a sequence that is at least 60% identical to amino acid sequences from positions 40 to 559 of SEQ ID NO:2 in WO 2001 / 062903.

Any polymer known in the art for use in fabric conditioner compositions may be utilized. The polymer may function as a co-builder as described above or may provide anti-redeposition, fiber protection, soil release, dye transfer prevention, anti-foam properties, perfume encapsulation, and smoothness. Some polymers may have two or more of the above properties and / or two or more of the following motifs: Exemplary polymers include polyquaterniums, melamine polymers, siloxanes, silicones, (carboxymethyl)cellulose (CMC), poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP), poly(ethylene glycol) or poly(ethylene oxide) (PEG), ethoxylated poly(ethyleneimine), carboxymethyl inulin (CMI), and polycarboxylates such as PAA, PAA / PMA, polyaspartic acid, and lauryl methacrylate / acrylic acid copolymers, hydrophobically modified CMC (HM-CMC), copolymers of terephthalic acid and oligomeric glycols, copolymers of poly(ethylene terephthalate) and poly(oxyethylene terephthalate) (PET-POET), PVP, poly(vinylimidazole) (PVI), poly(vinylpyridine-N-oxide) (PVPO or PVPNO), and polyvinylpyrrolidone-vinylimidazole (PVPVI).

Other exemplary polymers are disclosed, for example, in WO 2006 / 130575. Salts of the aforementioned polymers are also contemplated.
[0070] The fabric conditioner or softener composition may contain auxiliary materials. These optional ingredients include solvents (including isopropyl alcohol, propylene glycol, alkanes / cycloalkanes), anti-shrinkage agents, anti-resoiling agents, anti-wrinkle agents, bactericides, preservatives (including benzisothiazolinone, methylisothiazolinone, and / or lactic acid), binders, dyes, enzyme stabilizers (including boric acid, borates, CMC, and / or polyols, such as propylene glycol), emulsion stabilizers, defoamers (including dimethicone), and skin conditioning agents (including caprylic / capric glycerides, ethylhexyl stearate, or coconut oil, alone or in combination). The selection of such ingredients is well within the skill of those skilled in the art.
[0071] The second and third aspects of the present invention relate to methods for creating, modifying, improving or intensifying the olfactory impression of one or more perfume ingredients of a perfume composition deposited on a textile, the methods comprising simultaneously, sequentially or separately treating the textile with a perfume composition as defined herein and a cellulase enzyme, and the use of the perfume composition and the cellulase enzyme in such methods.
[0072] The method relies on the selection of specific perfume ingredients based on one or both of the two contributions mentioned earlier in this specification that relate to the ingredient's ClogP and affinity coefficient A. These contributions provide perfumers with a useful tool for creating perfume compositions for use in laundry care products containing cellulase enzymes, particularly those containing low levels of cationic surfactants. In such products, perfumers can take advantage of the synergy observed between cellulase enzymes and specific perfume ingredients by combining both perfume and cellulase enzymes in the same product.
[0073] In an alternative embodiment, the perfume composition and the cellulase enzyme may be applied to textiles separately and sequentially in different laundry care products. In such an embodiment of the present invention, a first laundry care product, such as a detergent or fabric conditioner, may contain the cellulase enzyme and a perfume composition not designed according to the present invention. Also, a second laundry care product, such as a scent booster, may contain a perfume composition as defined herein, containing perfume ingredients designed to provide an olfactory impression when delivered onto textiles that is compatible with the perfume of the first laundry care product.
[0074] Such an embodiment may be useful or desirable if the perfume used in the first laundry care product provides a desirable olfactory impression to the consumer when smelled "clean," i.e., when smelled from the bottle or poured into the machine to start the wash cycle, but then distorts the perfume signal when deposited on the fabrics treated with cellulase enzymes during one or more wash cycles. In such cases, a perfume composition designed according to the present invention in a second laundry care product can be used to balance the olfactory impression delivered on the fabrics by the first laundry care product while preserving the net perfume expression of the first laundry care product.
[0075] Such second laundry care products, containing perfume compositions designed according to the present invention and which may or may not contain cellulase enzymes, form another aspect of the present invention.
[0076] In certain embodiments of the various aspects of the present invention, the olfactory impression that is created, modified, improved, or intensified may relate to the delivery of fresh, floral, sweet, creamy, or oriental notes onto the treated textile and / or may relate to an increase in bloom intensity or room-filling intensity.

Use of an enzyme having cellulase activity, preferably the cellulase enzyme of any of embodiments 2 or 3 in the amount disclosed in embodiment 4 or 5, in a laundry care product to create, modify, improve or intensify the olfactory impression of one or more perfume ingredients in a perfume composition defined in any of embodiments 1, 8, 9, 10 and 11 deposited on textiles from the laundry care product.
[0091] The present invention will be further described and illustrated with reference to the following non-limiting examples. [Example]
[0092] experiment Example 1: Fragrance The fragrances in Table 1 were prepared by mixing all fragrance ingredients at the levels indicated.
[0093] [Table 1]
[0094] Example 2: Washing, Rinse, and Olfaction Evaluation Procedure In the first step, two loads of cotton fabric consisting of five small cotton terry towels, five T-shirts 95% cotton / 5% Lycra, and five T-shirts 100% cotton were subjected to 20 wash cycles using 65 g of unscented all-purpose liquid high-efficiency laundry care detergent for 45 minutes at a temperature of 40° C. The loads were dried after each cycle in a tumble dryer operating at 70° C. The purpose of this step was to age the fabric.
[0095] In the second step, each load was subjected to an additional 20 wash cycles, including a rinse cycle with a diluted, unscented fabric conditioner having a dry matter content of 4.54 wt. % based on the total weight of the conditioner. One load (A) contained the conditioner as is, while the other load (B) contained 0.1 wt. % cellulase added based on the total weight of the conditioner. The purpose of this step was to prepare two batches of cotton fabric, one of which had undergone a conventional washing history and the other had undergone an enzyme treatment.
[0096] For perfume ingredient deposition testing, 0.7 parts of perfume from Table 1 was mixed with 99.3 parts of diluted unscented laundry care liquid conditioner. The mixture was allowed to macerate for 3 days before further use. Lot A was washed again without adding cellulase to the conditioner, while Lot B was also washed again with a conditioner containing 0.1 wt. % cellulase having SEQ ID NO: 4, based on the total weight of the conditioner.
[0097] Both the wash and rinse cycles were carried out in a European front load washer. The wash and rinse cycles were carried out at 40°C for 50 minutes, followed by spin drying at 1000 rpm.
[0098] To evaluate Bloom "outside the machine," the machine was placed in a 10 m² room with an airflow of 25 air changes per hour. 3 The panelists were instructed to enter the booth in pairs, with one panelist opening the machine door. Panelists stood with their backs to the booth door and rated the odor intensity at this location the moment they first detected the odor.
[0099] For the "room filling" strength evaluation, the washed fabrics were immediately transferred to a line drying facility located in the booth. The air exchange was stopped and the fabrics were allowed to dry for 30 minutes. Panelists were instructed to evaluate through the entrance of the booth.
[0100] Olfactory evaluation was performed by a panel of five expert panelists.
[0101] The odor intensity was scored on a scale of 1 to 5 (1 = barely noticeable, 2 = weak, 3 = moderate, 4 = strong, and 5 = very strong). A qualitative description of the odor was also recorded. The results are reported in Table 2.
[0102] [Table 2]
[0103] As can be seen from Table 2, the presence of enzymes enhances perfume perception and strengthens the caring impression of the conditioner. The significant increase in bloom and room filling intensity observed in the presence of enzymes confirms that high performance perfume ingredients are better deposited on cotton surfaces treated with cellulase.
[0104] Example 3: Measurement of perfume oil deposition on textiles Analytical measurements were performed on 100% terry towels. Pentane extraction was performed with a SpeedExtractor (Buchi) to measure perfume deposition on the clothes. A known amount of material from the clothes to be washed was placed in the SpeedExtractor. The material was extracted using solvent (pentane) under pressure. Methyl decanoate (50 μL of a 10,000 ppm solution or 0.5 mg) was used as an internal standard.
[0105] The extracted samples were injected according to the "Splitless" method in a GC / MS / FID (Agilent GC 7890A-MS5975C) for identification of the fragrances and quantification by internal standards.
[0106] Table 3 shows the amount of perfume ingredient deposited on the fabric for Laundry A and B.
[0107] [Table 3]
[0108] The results in Table 3 demonstrate that the use of cellulase enzymes with perfume ingredients with a ClogP higher than 4, except for diphenyl oxide and aldehyde C 12 MNA, results in a significantly increased deposition of perfume oils on the fabric. However, these differences are due to analytical experimental problems related to the very high volatility of these ingredients. Olfactory evaluation confirms that the fresh amber odor of aldehyde C 12 MNA and the long-lasting floral rose odor of diphenyl oxide are better revealed on the dry fabric treated with cellulase.
