Abstract
Disclosed is a fragrance composition having enhanced efficacy for masking malodor for extended periods of time, to be used in deodorant compositions. The fragrance composition includes materials providing fruity, aldehydic and green notes, in an olfactory effective amount, and also includes at least 10% (e.g., 10%-28%) by weight, of the total weight of the fragrance composition, of acetyl hexamethyl tetralin. The fragrance composition can be incorporated in a body deodorant (for example, a deodorant for axillary regions, such as a deodorant stick) to mask body malodor arising in, e.g., axillary regions.
