Claims
- 1. A method for preparing perfume compositions and perfumed articles which comprises adding thereto an odor-effective concentration of an aromatic aldehyde or derivative thereof having the general formula ##STR12## possessing a single or a double bond in the position indicated by the dotted line, wherein X represents a monovalent radical of formula ##STR13## or, when the dotted line represents a single bond, of formula ##STR14## and wherein Z stands for an oxygen atom or for two R.sup.2 O radicals, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 representing an alkyl radical having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
- 2. A perfume composition containing as an odor effective ingredient an aromatic aldehyde or derivative thereof having the general formula ##STR15## possessing a single or a double bond in the position indicated by the dotted line, wherein X represents a monovalent radical of formula ##STR16## or, when the dotted line represents a single bond, for formula ##STR17## and wherein Z stands for an oxygen atom or from two R.sup.2 O radicals, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 representing an alkyl radical having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
- 3. A perfumed article containing as an odor effective ingredient an aromatic aldehyde or derivative thereof having the general formula ##STR18## possessing a single or double bond in the position indicated by the dotted line, wherein X represents a monovalent radical of formula ##STR19## or, when the dotted line represents a single bond, of formula ##STR20## and wherein Z stands for an oxygen atom or for two R.sup.2 O radicals, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 representing an alkyl radical having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms.
- 4. As a perfumed article according to claim 3, a soap, a cosmetic, a body deodorizer, an air-freshener, a detergent, a fabric softener or an household material.
- 5. The method of claim 1 wherein said aromatic aldehyde or derivative thereof is added in an amount of between about 0.2 and 25 percent by weight.
- 6. The method of claim 1 wherein said aldehyde is 3-[4-(1-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1-phenyl]-2-methylpropanal; 3-[4-(1-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1-phenyl]-2-methylpropionaldehyde dimethylacetal, 3-[4-(1-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1-phenyl]-2-methylpropionaldehyde diethylacetal, 3-[4-(1-methoxy-1-methyl-2-propenal, 3-(4-isopropenyl-1-phenyl)-2-methylpropanal, 3-(4-isopropenyl-1-phenyl)-2-methylpropionaldehyde dimethylacetal, or 3-(4-isopropenyl-1-phenyl)-2-methylpropionaldehyde diethylacetal.
- 7. The method of claim 6 wherein the aldehyde is added in an amount of between 0.2 and 5 percent by weight.
- 8. The composition of claim 2 wherein said aromatic aldehyde or derivative thereof is present in an amount of between about 0.2 and 25 percent by weight.
- 9. The composition of claim 2 wherein said aldehyde is 3-[4-(1-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1-phenyl]-2-methylpropanal; 3-[4-(1-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1-phenyl]-2-methylpropionaldehyde dimethylacetal, 3-[4-(1-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1-phenyl]-2-methylpropionaldehyde diethylacetal, 3-[4-(1-methoxy-1-methyl-2-propenal, 3-(4-isopropenyl-1-phenyl)-2-methylpropanal, 3-(4-isopropenyl-1-phenyl)-2-methylpropionaldehyde dimethylacetal, or 3-(4-isopropenyl-1-phenyl)-2-methylpropionaldehyde diethylacetal.
- 10. The composition of claim 9 wherein the aldehyde is present in an amount between 0.2 and 5 percent by weight.
- 11. The article of claim 3 wherein said aromatic aldehyde or derivative thereof is present in an amount of between about 0.2 and 25 percent by weight.
- 12. The article of claim 3 wherein said aldehyde is 3-[4-(1-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1-phenyl]-2-methylpropanal; 3-[4-(1-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1-phenyl]-2-methylpropionaldehyde dimethylacetal, 3-[4-(1-methoxy-1-methylethyl)-1-phenyl]-2-methylpropionaldehyde diethylacetal, 3-[4-(1-methoxy-1-methyl-2-propenal, 3-(4-isopropenyl-1-phenyl)-2-methylpropanal, 3-(4-isopropenyl-1-phenyl)-2-methylpropionaldehyde dimethylacetal, or 3-(4-isopropenyl-1-phenyl)-2-methylpropionaldehyde diethylacetal.
- 13. The article of claim 9 wherein the aldehyde is present in an amount of between 0.2 and 5 percent by weight.
