Description

The present invention relates to a composition for replenishing young female odor.

In recent years, people's interest in odor etiquette has increased, regardless of gender. Research on various body odors has been intensively advanced, and major causative odors such as sweat odor, armpit odor, foot odor, and aging odor have been identified. For example, body odor is generally considered to be caused by fatty acids and unsaturated aldehydes produced from sebum on the body surface. Similarly, the odor called aging odor is also generated on the body surface by oxidative decomposition of ω-unsaturated fatty acids (palmitoleic acid and vaccenic acid) produced by the decomposition of sebum, and unsaturated aldehydes called 2-nonenal are generated on the body surface. It has been reported that it is deeply related to doing (Non-Patent Document 1).

Techniques for preventing body odors such as aging odors include a method of masking with perfume or the like and a method of utilizing the odor adsorption effect of charcoal (Patent Document 1). A method using extracts from the root and rhizome of burnet (Patent Document 2) and a method using condensed persimmon tannin (Patent Document 3) have also been proposed. Furthermore, the development of detergents for washing off unpleasant odor components is also underway.

On the other hand, although it is said that body odors such as age-related odors are present in both men and women, the actual situation is that research on changes in body odors in women due to aging has not progressed sufficiently. Therefore, the development of anti-ageing odor products suitable for women is desired.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a product for rejuvenating body odor and a product for combating aging odor suitable for women. Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for evaluating a substance having an anti-aging effect, focusing on changes in female body odor with aging.

The present inventors have analyzed the body odor components of women in their teens to 50s, and found that women in their teens to 20s (young women) have a sensuously sweet scent (SWEET odor). found that it is possible to confirm After sensory evaluation, the components were analyzed to identify specific body odor components. In addition, it was clarified that nonenal odor, which is generally known as a causative agent of aging odor, is weaker in females than in males, and that there is no age difference. Then, by supplementing the odor components that make up the body odor of young women, which decreases with age, the body odor can be rejuvenated, and the aging odor of women can be suppressed, and the present invention has been completed. reached.

[Composition for replenishing the odor of young women]
The composition of the present invention is a composition for replenishing the odor of young women, which is used to supplement the odor components that make up the body odor of young women, and contains at least a lactone compound represented by the following formula (I). INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The composition of the present invention can rejuvenate women's body odor, and therefore can be suitably used as an external composition for women's anti-aging odor. On the other hand, for example, by using the composition of the present invention on an object to which body odor components tend to adhere due to the use of bedding, etc., the effect of rejuvenating the odor emitted from the attached body odor components can be expected. It can be suitably used for products, hard surfaces, or spaces. The body odor in the present invention refers to all odors emitted by women, and includes odors from the back, nape, behind the ears, scalp odor, sweat odor, armpit odor, foot odor, and the like.

Body odor is composed of various components, and studies by the present inventors have revealed that the amount of a specific lactone compound in body odor decreases with age in women. That is, although a specific lactone compound is sufficiently contained in the body odor of young women in their teens to early twenties, it decreases with age. On the other hand, the amount of nonenal, which is a conventionally known causative agent of aging odor, in the body odor of women is originally small, and there was no tendency to increase with aging. Therefore, as a countermeasure against aging odor for women, the present inventors found that it is contained in a large amount in the body odor of young women rather than suppressing nonenal odor, which is usually performed as a countermeasure for men's aging odor, or masking with perfume or the like. I thought that it would be more effective to compensate for the specific ingredients that decrease with age, even though I have a lot of them, but when I proceeded with research and research, I completed the present invention and found that the above-mentioned effects of the invention can be obtained. It is said that

In the formula, R is an alkyl group having 2 to 9 carbon atoms. The number of carbon atoms in R is preferably 3 to 9, more preferably 4 to 9, even more preferably 5 to 8, and particularly preferably 6 or 7. A hydrogen atom contained in the above alkyl group may be substituted.

Specific examples of the lactone compound represented by the formula (I) include γ-hexalactone, γ-heptalactone, γ-octalactone, γ-nonalactone, γ-decalactone, γ-undecalactone, γ-dodeca lactone, γ-tridecalactone and the like. Among these, γ-nonalactone, γ-decalactone, γ-undecalactone and γ-dodecalactone are preferred, and γ-decalactone and γ-undecalactone are more preferred. These lactone compounds are components having the aroma of fruits such as peach, apricot, and coconut. In addition, a lactone compound may be used individually by 1 type, and may use 2 or more types together.

The content of the lactone compound represented by formula (I) in the composition of the present invention is 0.00001% by weight to 10% by weight, and from the viewpoint of the effect on women's aging odor countermeasures, it is 0.00005% by weight. % to 5% by weight, more preferably 0.0001% to 3% by weight, even more preferably 0.0005% to 2% by weight, and 0.001% to 1% by weight. % by weight is particularly preferred. In addition, when using 2 or more types of lactone compounds together, the total amount falls within the above numerical range.

In addition to the lactone compound represented by the above formula (I), there are many types of odor components that constitute the body odor of young women. The composition of the present invention may contain odor components other than the lactone compound represented by formula (I), which constitute the body odor of young women. Other odor components that make up the body odor of young women include, for example, aldehydes, fatty acids, ketones, sulfur compounds (S-based odor), nitrogen compounds (N-based odor), and the like. As the other odor component that constitutes the body odor of young women contained in the composition of the present invention, a component whose content in the body odor decreases with aging of the woman is preferable.

Japanese women (n = 50) in their late teens to 50s wore T-shirts with cloth sewn on their backs after bathing until before bathing the next day. , fatty acid odor, amine/ammonia odor, S-based odor, and SWEET odor), sensory evaluation was performed by professional panelists on a 6-point scale. Table 1 shows the criteria for the 6-level score (odor intensity; 0 to 5), and the results are shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 show SWEET odor sensory evaluation scores, and FIG. 3 shows nonenal odor sensory evaluation scores. Furthermore, an odor analysis was performed on the recovered cloth using a headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (HSS-GC/MS). FIG. 4 shows the results of a study on the correlation between the concentration (ppm) of nonenal and the age of the subject (sample). Also, the correlation between the concentration (ppm) of each lactone component (γ-decalactone, γ-undecalactone) and the age of the subject (sample) was examined, and the results are shown in FIG.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, it was found that the SWEET odor was high in females in their late teens until their early twenties, and that the odor decreased with aging. FIG. 1 is a bar graph of each data in FIG. 2 by age group. In addition, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, no clear correlation was observed between age and sensory score for nonenal odor, and it was found that the odor intensity itself was lower than that of men. HSS-GC/MS also revealed that the main components of the SWEET odor were γ-decalactone and γ-undecalactone.

As a result of examining the correlation between the total amount of γ-decalactone and γ-undecalactone and age, as shown in FIG. It was also confirmed that the concentration decreased after the age of 30. It turned out that around 35 years old is a big change point of SWEET odor (turning point of odor).

[Test 2]
A cotton ball (white cross No. 10) impregnated with 10 μL of model aging odor containing trans-2-nonenal and 1 μL of single raw materials of various γ-lactones was placed in a container and sealed. After 30 minutes, the pleasantness/unpleasantness of the model aging odor was evaluated. The evaluation was performed by a panel of four people, mainly evaluators. Various γ-lactones were diluted with dipropylene glycol to 1% or 10% and used. The evaluation score criteria are shown in Table 2 below, and the results are shown in Table 3 and FIG.

Discomfort against model aging odor was not improved by γ-valerolactone (Comparative Example 1), but γ-hexalactone (Example 1), γ-heptalactone (Example 2), γ-octalactone ( When adding Example 3), γ-decalactone (Example 4), and γ-undecalactone (Example 5), the odor quality was improved and the odor was pleasant.

[Test 3]
While smelling various scents, the impressions of the women in the photographs (four in total) were evaluated. Specifically, "fragrance-free" and "2-nonenal", "soap fragrance", "lactone C10 / lactone C11-containing fragrance" with an odor intensity of 2 according to the 6-step odor intensity indication method are prepared. While looking at photographs of women (average real age of 40) while smelling one type of scent, a questionnaire survey on "femininity", "youthfulness", and "attractiveness" was conducted (n = 52). The evaluation was performed by general males and general females (aged 30 and over). Fig. 7 shows the impressions (%) of "femininity", "youthfulness", and "attractiveness" when the fragrance-free is taken as 100%.

When there was a scent containing γ-decalactone (R=6) and/or γ-undecalactone (R=7), the women in the photograph were evaluated to be younger and more youthful. In addition, it was evaluated that femininity, attractiveness, and favorability increased. It is known that many ordinary women feel changes in their own body odor as they age. It was inferred that body odor changes occur due to the decrease in lactone C10/lactone C11 after the age of 30. Furthermore, from the above test results, it was also found that the function of "Lactone C10/Lactone C11" is to increase femininity, youthfulness, and attractiveness. Through this research, as an approach to women's aging odor, not only removing it by washing, but also adding the scent of "Lactone C10 / Lactone C11" is more effective for women's aging odor. approach was considered possible.
