Definitions

• the invention relates generally to scented antiperspirant compositions comprising one or more fragrance oils dispersed in an oil phase, which are characterized by a reduced loss of fragrance character and intensity over time.
• Antiperspirant compositions are commonly applied to skin, such as the underarms, to prevent or reduce body sweating and/or odor. Such compositions take a variety of physical forms including sticks, soft solids, gels, creams, roll-on liquids, or pump or aerosol sprays. Antiperspirant compositions also typically contain fragrance to enhance the smell of the personal care product, mask or eliminate body odor, or provide other functional benefits, such as repelling insects.
• compositions including antiperspirants, having a reduced loss of fragrance character and intensity over time, preferably provided without necessarily increasing the fragrance load, or requiring specialized fragrances or stabilizers.
• compositions that provide reduced loss of fragrance levels on storage, both in terms of character and intensity, in an antiperspirant composition, and packaged personal care products containing such compositions.
• antiperspirant compositions that provide stable fragrance character and intensity over prolonged storage periods. It has surprisingly been found that antiperspirant compositions comprising one or more fragrance oils dispersed in an oil phase comprising one or more triglyceride oils collectively having a saturated fatty acid content of at least 75%, provide reduced loss of fragrance character and intensity over time as compared to otherwise identical formulations having lesser saturated fatty acid content.
• the antiperspirant compositions ideally provide one or more other desirable benefits, such as exhibiting a soft feel to the skin when applied, moisturizing the skin, reducing of whitening effect of inorganic antiperspirant actives on the skin, reducing skin irritancy and/or darkening, and evening out skin tone.
• compositions are typically in the form of emulsions (e.g., oil-in-water or water-in-oil) or dispersions in water or alcohol, such as in a roll-on antiperspirant, but may also take the form of a cream, gel, soft solid, stick, or spray, for example.
• the compositions may comprise one or more fragrance oils in an amount, individually or in the aggregate, of from about 0.1 % to about 3% by weight (e.g., about 0.5%, 1 %, 1.5%, 2%, or about 2.5%) of the composition.

• the fatty acid content of the oil phase comprises at least 75% of fatty acids having a chain length of C 16 or less.

• compositions may further comprise one or more antiperspirant actives, which may reduce or eliminate body sweat, in an amount from about 1 to about 25% (e.g., about 5- 15%) by weight of the composition on an anhydrous solids basis.
• antiperspirant actives are aluminum-based or an aluminum/zirconium-based.
• the one or more antiperspirant actives may be aluminum salts or aluminum/zirconium salts, aluminum or aluminum/zirconium glycol complexes, and/or combinations thereof.
• the compositions may further comprise a polyol, preferably glycerol, for example, in an amount of about 0.1 to about 25% by weight, more typically about from about 1 to about 10 % by weight of the composition.
• compositions are typically aqueous, though they may be substantially anhydrous or anhydrous.
• Aqueous compositions may contain at least 1% water but typically will comprise water in an amount of from about 20-95% or from about 50-90% by weight (e.g., about 60%, 70%, 80%, etc.) of the composition.
