Protecting Formulas

Strategies for addressing formula disclosure requests for flavors and fragrances and recent challenges. In the flavor and fragrance industry, IP (IP)—and formulas in particular—are key. Without limited disclosure, companies would have little in the way of uniqueness or value.

Organosilicon Fragrances

Novel and interesting investigations in the field of the chemistry of odor have been recently described by Wrobel and Warmagat. In their search for new fragrances and for a better understanding of the relationship between the molecular structure and the olfactory propeties of compounds, the authors turned their attention to silicon. The principal approach was to introduce the silicon atom into the osmophoric center of odoriferous materials. A number of compounds have been prepared and evaluated. This article briefly summarizes the synthesis and olfactory characteristics obtained.

Fragrance and Transparency

It is not coming because of any pending legislation, but rather because of a desire from consumers and some consumer goods companies to lift the veil of secrecy from fragrance ingredients.

NEXT: Sensory Frontiers

Healthier flavors, quantitatively emotionally engaging fragrances and other sensory frontiers sit at the intersection of product innovation and basic research; that’s where the Monell Center and its industry sponsors come in.

Demonstrating perfume fixation

Quantitative evidence of fragrance fixation by a 20 mole propoxylate of methyl glucoside was obtained by subjecting a representative series of pure aroma chemicals to accurately measured evaporation and retention studies over time segments of 1,3,6 and 24 hours. The number and variety of aroma chemicals studied permits application of the results to most of the remaining aroma chemicals in the perfumer’s repertory. Improved fixation is possible at very modest cost with this simple application technology.

Mood Benefits Fragrance

The profiles presented here illustrate that fragrances can have measurable and distinctive effects on our mood in ways that could prove beneficial for the user. We believe that further improvements in our measurement techniques, and a better understanding of the mood changes evoked by specific perfumery ingredients will allow for the development of more impactful mood-aftering fragrances.

Fragrance and Communication

The sense of smell has a powerful influence over our emotions, memories and reactions. For children with profound learning and communication difficulties, smell can help them identify people, places and objects. So, given that olfactory information has a direct path to our limbic system, can it be positively harnessed in an educational environment?

Laundry-300

Patent Pick: Getting Fresh

Henkel knows our dirty secret: we forget to move loads of laundry to the dryer. So they sit, forgotten, in a damp funk. That's why the company has (thankfully) patented photolabile pro-fragrances to extend the freshness of laundry fragrance.
