Below is the description of the terms used to derive equation [1].
  • Flux of an odorant in partitions water, water-air and air ( ⁇ ) is defined as the ratio of the quantity of odorant being transferred in the media considered divided by the time and area of the contained medium. Flux values can also be defined in relation to a concentration gradient of the odorant throughout a partition according to:
  • D 12 is the diffusion constant of odorant (1) in partition (2) and is the concentration gradient of odorant (1 ) throughout the partition.
  • D 12 is calculated using the "Slattery Kinetic Theory" with non-polar odorants using odorants' critical parameters, unsteady state evaporation and measurement of binary diffusion coefficient. (Chem. Eng. Sci. 52, 1511 - 1515).
  • the concentration gradients of the odorants composing the perfumes throughout the partitions considered (water, water-air and air) are calculated by solving for the dimensionless velocity value determined using the Arnold equation. (See Arnold, J. H. Studies in Diffusion: III. Unsteady State Vaporization and Absorption. Trans. Am. Inst. Chem. Eng., 40, 361 - 378.).
  • the vapor pressure of the odorant is an important measure of its volatility.
  • the product of the odorant's activity coefficient ⁇ in the partition its mole fraction X and its pure vapor pressure value P v gives the odorant's relative vapor pressure.
  • a second important factor for volatility is the diffusivity D 12 of the odorant in the considered media: water, vapor phase and subsequently air.
  • the final variable to consider is an energy parameter in the partition state.
  • the energy difference ⁇ -12 ⁇ 12 ( polar ) - ⁇ 12o(non-polar) is proportional to the partition coefficient of an odorant in a polar solvent such as water, and a water immiscible solvent such as octanol, benzene and paraffin liquid.
  • the energy ⁇ 12 is called the partition energy and can be correlated to the clogP value of odorants.
  • the easiest separation is to break the acceleration vector into 2 dimensional quantities: a frequency or first order rate constant (1/time) and a velocity (distance/time) term.
  • the velocity group can be formed from the vapor pressure and density. Since pressure has units of mass*distance/distance 2 *time 2 , and density has units of mass/distance 3 , the ratio of the two has units of velocity squared. The square root gives the desired velocity.
  • the first order rate constant can be formed from the variables MW, D 12 and ⁇ 12 . Since the partition energy ⁇ n has dimensions of calories per mole (mass.length 2 /mole.time 2 ) and the diffusivity coefficient D 12 has a dimension of distance 2 per time, the ratio yields exactly a molecular weight unit per time t.
  • the energy can be made dimensionless by dividing by the gas constant k and temperature T.
  • the remaining variable Di 2 can be made to a frequency by dividing by a cross sectional area L 2 . A molecular area calculated from the liquid molar volume could represent this area.
  • Pseudo acceleration values are also closely linked to the ability of an odorant to travel through headspace once it is airborne in addition to its ability to migrate through the water and water-air partitions. This value is predictive of what the authors consider “flash release”, “sustained release” and “deposition” of odorants in heavy water dilutions.
  • Flash release is defined as fast migration through water and subsequent very low residence time in headspace, resulting in a short hedonic experience and very minimal deposition on a treated surface.
  • sustained release is characterized by good water release properties along with a longer residence time in the water vapor and subsequently, the air phase.
  • Deposition is a term used to categorize odorants with very poor water release properties and consequently superior deposition on the surfaces treated. Flash release odorants are considered by the authors to have acceleration, ⁇ values above 900 cm/sec 2 , sustained release odorants are thought to have ⁇ values between 900 and 100 and finally deposition odorants have acceleration values of less than 100.
  • At least one odorant contributing to the desired delayed odor may have an odor detection threshold in water value and/or an odor index in water value, as defined in the present invention of 50 parts per billion or less.
  • At least one odorant contributing to the delayed release perfume may have an odor detection threshold in air and/or odor index determined in air of about 0.025 mg/m 3 and less.
  • Water based formulations are usually oil in water or water in oil emulsions with a varied concentration of water. By emulsifying these partitions, fragrances are dispersed and solubilized. Upon heavy water dilutions typical for the average household, industrial and cosmetic use, odorants making up perfumes need to diffuse through what is considered to be mostly water, a vapor phase above the liquid phase and finally the air phase.
  • This value of water release is indicative of the chronological order of elution of the odorants involved in the composition of the perfume diluted in water.
  • odorants having an acceleration value greater than 900 include:
  • Examples of odorants having an acceleration value less than 100 include:
  • Examples of odorants having an acceleration value between 100 and 900 include:
  • a 10 gram sample of formulation and fragrance was added to an empty 1000ml Pyrex beaker. This beaker was then filled with 1000 ml of 120F tap water. Beaker with diluted shampoo sample was then immediately placed into a semi-enclosed plexiglass chamber.
  • Headspace Sampling Once beaker was placed into chamber a Carboxan SPME field fiber was held at the top-side opening of the chamber over the beaker containing the sample. At 15 seconds, the fiber was released and the headspace emissions from the beaker were collected. Headspace emissions from beaker were collected at 15, 30, 60, 90, 120, 240 and 300 seconds using a different Carboxan- PDMS field fiber for each sampling time. Top of plexi-glass chamber was held open for entire 5 minutes of headspace sampling.
  • the partition release value ⁇ is defined as the product of the pseudo acceleration ⁇ and the flux value ⁇ and the quantity of odorant in a total
  • water release out of the water, water-air and air partitions can then be physically equated to a value of or in other words, units of pressure per time out partition. It is important to establish that water release values are indicative of the order of elution of odorants in a perfume out the partitions considered into headspace when subject to extreme aqueous dilutions. It is indicative of how fast in time will an odorant start to appear in time.
  • This predictive value for elution time allows a person skilled in the art to establish groupings of odorants eluting from the water dilutions, constructing therefore keys or hedonic profile and achieving better engineering control of their creative process.
  • a perfumer can construct optimized perfumes for water release systems, since most of these odorants will behave differently in aqueous dilutions as compared to emulsions with various surfactant proportions.
  • Water release values, ⁇ for the corresponding odorants is an indication of the time it will take before it appears in headspace when diluted in water. Once in headspace, acceleration values as well as odor detection thresholds (discussed in more details further) will dictate the intensity and odor contribution as well as residence time of odorants in the water vapor and air. The following relationships were empirically established by the authors for elution time of odorants in heavily diluted aqueous media based on ⁇ value ranges as shown in Table 5. Table 5: Water Release Value Ranges
  • the perfume's components are grouped in the predicted water release groups or ranges (1 to 6) according to the l values above along with the predicted time of elution (t) from the diluted aqueous/air partitions.
  • Odorants making up the perfume eluted in a 1/100 water dilution as predicted by their calculated ⁇ values For example, when considering the first 20 seconds of the release profile of the diluted perfume, the inventors predicted d-limonene to elute first based on its ⁇ value (Water Release Group 1 ). The headspace experiment confirmed the above calculated prediction.
  • the next group of odorants predicted to elute from the diluted partition was made of: triplal, ethyl butyrate, ethyl-2-methyl butyrate, manzanate, linalool and dihydromyrcenol at time less than 10 seconds.

This factor is found to correlate to the type of functional group and most importantly to the Lydersen critical property increments. Conformation of 1-undecanal shown in figure 11 was used to calculate the odor index value of 1-undecanal both in air and in water as an illustrative example. The odor index value in air was found to be equal 0.000219 mg/m 3 . The experimental value for odor detection threshold in air was determined to be 0.00054 mg/m 3 by Randenbrock (See Randebrock, R.E.

These calculation results are shown below in Table 8 for some odorants and are correlated with experimental values from the Booleans database for experimental odor detection thresholds in water. Table 8

  • the "water release groups” determined according to the odorants' ⁇ values and further predicted to release in time based on values shown earlier in this invention are as follows.
  • d-limonene is typical of a flash release material.
  • the odor detection of odor detection threshold of d-limonene is not exceptionally when compared to odorants such as ethyl-2-methyl butyrate. Therefore, d-limonene is considered to be a typical "flash release material" in rinse-off conditions.
  • the "water release group 2" is predicted to be fruity with mostly an apple character due to the very large contribution of manzanate to the overall odor profile of this group of odorants, which elute together from the water dilution. Most of the odorants within “Water Release Group 2" are considered “flash release” compounds based solely on their ⁇ values. It is important to emphasize the contribution of the odor index and/or odor detection values in addition to the ⁇ values when gauging flash release. For example, ethyl-2-methyl butyrate and manzanate despite their very high ⁇ values will have the tendency to be perceived longer when entering headspace since their odor detection thresholds are very low and need not to be present in high amounts to be recognized by a consumer.
  • ⁇ values of the odorants within Water Release Group 4 this accord will be mostly characterized by the /?-ionone odor contribution (violet). Due to its low odor detection threshold and/or odor index, /2-ionone will have a tremendous impact to the overall fragrance once it is eluted in headspace. B-ionone's ⁇ values, coupled with a very low odor detection threshold, result in a hedonic contribution and perceived for the rest of the rinse-off experience by the consumer.
  • the accord released within the Water Release Group 5 can be described as being mostly fruity (peach and grapefruit) with a floral background. Odorants such as Oxane, considered a top note can be delivered much later during the rinse off process by carefully choosing the right dilution and based on its water release value, ⁇ . Conversely, using much higher concentrations of gamma-undecalactone will move its elution time much earlier into the earlier "Water Release Groups". Forcing odorants, such as gamma-decalactone with low odor detection threshold and low F values, to elute earlier by overdosing on their concentration within the perfume total will lead to a much sustained peach note that will last throughout the rinse-off once it is released into headspace.
  • the Tropical Fruit perfume upon dilution gives the following fragrance profile during rinse-off, in particular shampoo, conditioner and body-wash applications as specified in Table 15.
  • This invention pertains to the engineering of hedonics based on mass transfer values of odorants making up a fragrance used in a rinse-off product.
  • part of the marketing strategy is to give the impression that the benefit is fully delivered by linking the smell of the water released product to the advertised benefit agent.
  • the resulting release hedonics can be either sustained during the entire wash experience or can be engineered to appear at a specific moment starting from the beginning of the experience, or in other words delayed release.
  • the inventors are able to maximize the impact of the delivered fragrance note upon water release.
  • the inventors have designed an apple fragrance for shampoo, body wash and conditioners that will give the consumer a sustained apple fragrance during the entire wash-off experience.
  • Each water-release groups composing the perfume are shown below.
  • the inventors use the definition of odor impact to illustrate the applications of odor indices as a tool to predict the overall odor profile of each Water Release Group for the Apple fragrance.
  • An apple odorant is present in five out of six release group in the perfume considered for this particular application by the inventors (water release groups 1 , 2, 3, 4 and 5).
  • Each apple odorant included in the targeted water release groups by the inventors has an odor detection threshold of 50 ppb or less. These odor detection threshold values are also corroborated by the odor index values for these apple odorants. Based on these apple odorant's odor detection threshold values and odor indices as illustrated in the below examples, it is shown by the author that a strong apple note is present throughout the rinse-off experience when using this perfume.
  • alpha-damascone as a contributor to the apple note although it is perceived alone as floral rose with some apple-blackcurrant plum undertones.
  • the authors can also apply their odor index algorithm to gauge odor intensity of odorants and subsequently, predict the overall odor of each Water Release Group as well as the odor contribution of each apple odorant chosen in the Apple perfume.
  • the contribution to each of the apple odorants to the overall odor is estimated within each Water Release Groups containing the apple odorants, using odor impact equation [3] as shown earlier and rationale used in the Tropical Fruit Perfume in Table 18.
  • the second "wave” of odorants eluting in Water Release Group 2 is almost 100% apple in its odor profile as shown below in Table 19.
  • Manzanate' s very large contribution to the overall odor of Water Release Group 2 is due to its very low odor detection threshold and odor index values in water, respectively 0.003 parts per billion and 0.001 parts per billion.
  • Water Release Group 3's apple comes mostly from verdox, a green apple odorant, thought to result in a long headspace residence time in rinse-off due to its /"value of 564.56, characteristic of sustained release in water dilutions.
  • Water Release Group 4 and 5 also have some apple character, which add to the overall background generated from the previously released odorants predicted to elute as shown above.
  • the percentage contribution of the apple odorants to their overall character is shown below in Tables 21-22.
  • the next perfume example is a "Floral" perfume designed to yield a sustained floral accord during rinse-off. It was constructed for linear release based on the criteria set forth by the authors in this invention.
  • Floral fragrance is a perfume designed to give a long sustained linear release of a floral note from the beginning to the end of the rinse-off experience.
  • the odorants are divided into Water Release Groups according to their water release values ⁇ . Table 23
  • Every odorant in the formula contributes to the floralcy of the released perfume. No odorants in the formula are found to elute in the defined "Water Release Group 1", or in other words have a water release value, ⁇ higher than 10.
  • Floral perfume releases in rinse-off in typically linear fashion from beginning to end as it was constructed to do based on its mass transfer properties and rationale as defined in the herein invention. It is mostly composed of sustained release odorants (based on their ⁇ values).
  • This perfume gives a burst of a cucumber melon note between 10 and 20 seconds due to melonal, predicted to elute in Water Release Group 3.
  • 2,6-Nonadienal from Water Release Group 4 contributes to the cucumber melon note, as a flash release odorant as well.
  • Both of these odorants have low odor detection threshold values in water: 16 ppb and 0.01 ppb for melonal and 2,6-nonadienal respectively.
  • 2,6-nonadienal Once released in air, due to its very low odor detection threshold value, 2,6-nonadienal will have a very large impact on the overall perfume released from the dilution partitions.
  • 2,6-Nonadienol will bring about a very sustained release based on its F value and relatively low odor detection threshold value in water: 1 part per billion.

  • the desired olfactive note is given by a single odorant and/or a combination of odorants within the latter water release groups (subsequent to Water Release Group 3) and that at least one odorant that results in the desired odor has an odor detection threshold in water or a water odor index of less than 50 parts per billion and/or an air odor detection threshold and/or an air odor index of less than 0.025 mg/m 3 .
  • fragrance odorants which will contribute to the delayed berry note appear in Water Release Groups 5 and 6 and are as follow in Table 30.
  • the Water Blossoms" fragrance gave an initial floral fragrance when first used in rinse-off and then a change into a berry odor after around 30 seconds from the time of dilution.
  • the appearance of the berry note is also gradual based on the ⁇ values of odorants chosen.
  • trans-4-decenal and 1-p ⁇ menthene-8-thiol are indicative of flash release and thiogeraniol will give more of a sustained release once diluted in rinse- off conditions. These properties will give the perception of a delayed citrus burst as opposed to a gradual burst as discussed in the previous examples. It is also important to note that trans-4-decenal; thiogeraniol and 1-p-menthene-8-thiol are classically considered "top notes" and were thought to be blooming odorants according to the prior art. Their boiling point and clogP values are shown in Table 33.
