Abstract
A perfume composition contains at least 30% by weight of perfume components having a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for coryneform bacteria of greater than 0.1%. The composition can be used in deodorant products to reduce body malodour sub-lethally, i.e. without significantly affecting the numbers of bacteria present on the skin surface.
