Fragrance carriers for laundry compositions |
(57) Fragrance compounds are dispersed in a matrix of solid non-ionic or cationic surfactant
to obtain a fabric softener composition, usefully added to conventional laundry detergent
compositions. The softergents so prepared, when used in normal laundering processes,
result in an attachment of the fragrant softener component to the laundered textile
fabric. The attachment survives a subsequent drying cycle so that the laundered and
dried fabric remains associated with a slow-release fragrance.
