Description

[0001] "Permanent mixture, perfumed composition comprising the mixture, and perfumed alcoholic solution"

[0002] TECHNICAL FIELD

[0003] The present invention relates to a fragrance longevity optimization blend, a perfumed composition comprising the blend, and a perfumed alcoholic solution comprising said composition. The invention finds particular application in the fields of perfumery, cosmetics, detergents, and home fragrance to improve longevity on any surface, such as skin, hair, or textiles.

[0004] STATE OF THE ART

[0005] Improving the potency and longevity of fragrances is a constant challenge in the perfume industry. Consumers expect a product that delivers not only long-lasting functional performance but also an emotional experience through its fragrance.

[0006] Perfumes are commonly formulated with alcohol as a solvent or diluent. Alcohol has the advantage and disadvantage of carrying aromatic molecules with it as it evaporates. This allows the user to quickly absorb the aromatic molecules. However, the fragrance's intensity diminishes rapidly, and it does not last long.

[0007] While some well-known, state-of-the-art blends used to enhance the longevity of perfumes, such as polycitronellol or sucrose acetate isobutyrate, they tend to sequester the top notes, meaning the fragrance intensity diminishes a few seconds after application. Furthermore, existing solutions can alter the perfume's olfactory profile. In addition, current regulations concerning chemical compounds are constantly evolving, and consumers are increasingly seeking natural products that comply with standards such as COSMOS.

[0008] The present invention aims to provide a solution that optimizes the longevity of perfumes and meets these new requirements.

[0009] The other objects, features, and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from an examination of the following description and accompanying drawings. It is understood that other advantages may be incorporated.

[0010] SUMMARY

[0011] To achieve this objective, according to one embodiment, a residual mixture is provided comprising 30% disopropyl sebacate and 70% triheptanoin, the percentages being by weight of the total weight of the mixture.

[0012] The selection of the compounds of the mixture according to the invention made it possible to obtain a very good residual fragrance efficiency of a perfumed composition or a perfumed alcoholic solution in which it can be integrated.

[0013] According to another aspect, the invention relates to a perfumed composition comprising the residual mixture.

[0014] According to another aspect, the invention relates to a perfumed alcoholic solution comprising alcohol as a diluent and 3% to 30% perfumed composition, by weight of the total weight of the perfumed alcoholic solution.

[0033] According to another aspect, the invention relates to a method for improving the longevity of a perfume comprising the use of the perfumed mixture or composition or the alcoholic solution, alone or added to a perfume.

[0034] A parameter "approximately equal to / greater than / less than" or "of the order of" a given value means that this parameter is equal to / greater than / less than the given value, to within 10% or even 5% of that value.

[0035] For the purposes of this disclosure, "A and / or B" means (A), (B), or (A and B). For the purposes of this disclosure, "A, B, and / or C" means (A), (B), (C), (A and B), (A and C), (B and C), or (A, B, and C).

[0036] According to the invention, "mixture" and "residual mixture" refer to a mixture comprising diisopropyl sebacate and triheptanoin. For the purposes of this invention, "mixture" and "residual mixture" may be used interchangeably.

[0037] The term "composition" refers to a composition comprising the mixture according to the invention. Typically, this composition is a perfumed composition.

[0038] A "perfume composition" is defined as a composition comprising a mixture of perfume substances, said perfume substances being in their usual form, in solution, or in suspension, within their diluents, solvents, or co-ingredients. Such a composition is intended to provide a pleasant olfactory component. A perfume composition may also be called a fragrance.

[0039] By "pleasant smell" we mean a smell that is detected by the human sense of smell and is perceived as pleasant.

[0040] By "alcoholic solution" we mean a solution which includes alcohol as a solvent or diluent which may or may not be supplemented with water to form a hydroalcoholic solution.

[0041] By "perfuming substance" we mean one or more perfumed raw materials of natural or synthetic origin.

[0042] By "stable" we mean a composition that does not degrade over time and whose components do not react with each other. By "stable" we mean that the homogeneity, color, olfactory intensity, olfactory quality, and / or viscosity of the composition are maintained. More specifically, the composition according to the present invention is stable under accelerated aging after 24 hours under UV light (Suntest) and after 2 months at 25°C and 45°C compared to a sample kept at 5°C, protected from light.

[0043] Percentages are understood as mass percentage, that is to say, weight relative to a weight of the complex or composition.

[0044] The present invention relates to a mixture comprising diisopropyl sebacate and triheptanoin. Advantageously, the mixture consists of diisopropyl sebacate and triheptanoin.

[0045] Diisopropyl sebacate is a compound with CAS No.: 7491-02-3, EINECS No.: 231-306-4 and IUPAC name: 1,10-bis(propan-2-yl) decanedioate.

[0046] Triheptanoin is a compound with CAS No.: 620-67-7, EINECS No.: 210-647-2 and IUPAC name: 1,3-bis(heptanoyloxy)propan-2-yl heptanoate or 2,3-di(heptanoyloxy)propyl heptanoate or propane-1,2,3-triyl triheptanoate or Propane-1,2,3-triyl trisheptanoate.

[0047] Advantageously, it has been identified that the mixture comprising 30% diisopropyl sebacate and 70% triheptanoin, the percentages being by weight of the total weight of the mixture, exhibits very good residual efficacy of the olfactory profile of a composition in which it is incorporated.

[0048] The mixture according to the invention is advantageously an emollient mixture. Being emollient, the mixture improves the longevity of the fragrance without sequestering the top notes, as is the case with prior art compositions which are film-forming.

[0049] Preferably, the mixture consists of 30% diisopropyl sebacate and 70% triheptanoin, the percentages being by weight of the total weight of the mixture.

[0050] The components of the residual mixture are not classified according to EC Regulation No. 1272 / 2008. According to a preferred option, the mixture is used in a composition.

[0051] The invention relates to an advantageously perfumed composition comprising the mixture as described above.

[0052] The composition comprises 5% to 30% of the mixture by weight of the total weight of the composition.

[0053] For example, the composition comprises 10% of the mixture by weight of the total composition, i.e., 3% diisopropyl sebacate and 7% triheptanoin, the percentages being expressed by weight of the total composition. The composition is advantageously a perfumed composition, that is, a composition comprising one or a mixture of perfume substances, also generically referred to as perfume.

[0054] According to a preferred embodiment, the perfumed composition comprises the residual mixture, preferably from 5 to 30%, and one or a mixture of perfume substances or perfume, preferably in an amount between 70% and 95%, possibly additives may be added.

[0055] Advantageously, the mixture and composition are stable.

[0148] Example 3: Triangular tests of sensory analysis

[0149] The compositions in Examples 1 and 2 are used at 15% in hydroalcoholic solutions, compared to 15% hydroalcoholic solutions of the control compositions in which the residual fragrance is replaced by DPG (Dipropylene Glycol) to compare the olfactory performance at t=0 (triangle test) and the potency over time (skin persistence test at t=2h, 4h, and 8h). The alcoholic solution comprises 15% of the fragrance composition, 6% water, and 79% ethanol; more precisely, in this example, the alcoholic solution is a hydroalcoholic solution.

[0150] Method

[0151] Panelists are given two identical samples and one different sample. They are asked to identify the different product. If enough panelists give the correct answer, the products are considered different. If enough panelists give the incorrect answer, the products are considered identical. The differentiation threshold is set according to the number of panelists for a confidence level of 0.95 and according to the differentiation threshold table found in ISO 4120:2021.

[0152] In our case, we have 21 participants. The differentiation threshold is therefore 12 correct answers for a confidence level of 0.95.

[0153] Results

[0154] At t=0, no significant difference was identified between the solutions without the residual mixture and with the residual mixture, neither on the alcoholic solution comprising the citrus perfume composition nor on the alcoholic solution comprising the floral perfume composition.

[0155] The formulated residual mixture therefore does not cause any change in the olfactory profile of the compositions in alcoholic solution at t=0. Figure 1.

[0156] Therefore, we do not observe a sequestering effect of the top notes.

[0157] Example 4: Skin persistence test on alcoholic solutions of compositions with and without mixture

[0158] Method

[0159] The compositions of Examples 1 and 2, as well as the control compositions in which the residual mixture is replaced by DPG (Dipropylene glycol), are used in a 15% alcoholic solution and then applied to the arms of a volunteer. One arm is treated with the alcoholic solution containing 15% of the fragrance composition (which includes 10% of the residual mixture), and the other arm with the alcoholic solution containing 15% of the control fragrance composition (which includes 10% DPG). The alcoholic solution is composed identically to that of Example 3.

[0160] The panel assesses the intensity of the fragrance by comparing the two arms, then completes a questionnaire in sequential monadic format. Strengths are rated on a linear scale from 1 (Very Weak) to 10 (Very Strong).

[0161] The panel assesses the different intensities on scales generated by the FIZZ Biosystemes software. The responses are then automatically recorded by this software at the end of the questionnaire.

[0162] The data is processed and analyzed using statistical tests and FIZZ treatments specifically adapted for sensory analysis. Standard processing will be performed, namely an analysis of variance (ANOVA), which is the statistical model used to compare sample means.

[0163] Results

[0164] For the alcoholic solution containing the floral fragrance composition, we observed a 30% increase in intensity thanks to the residual mixture at 2 hours, a 22% increase at 4 hours, and a 29% increase at 8 hours compared to the alcoholic solution containing the composition without the residual mixture. Figures 2 to 4.

[0165] For the alcoholic solution containing the citrus fragrance composition, we obtained a 12% increase in intensity thanks to the residual mixture at 2 hours, 21% at 4 hours, and 17% at 8 hours compared to the alcoholic solution containing the composition without the residual mixture. Figures 5 to 7.

[0166] Some perfumers have found that by two hours, the heart notes of the unblended alcoholic solution were already present, while the blended alcoholic solution was still focused on the top notes. The addition of the blend therefore prolongs the duration of each olfactory experience within the perfume's olfactory pyramid.
