The invention comprises the use of multiple-branch esters of the common formula A, formed from branch-chain carboxylic acids and branch-chain alcohols, as ingredients of cosmetic agents for the protection and care of human skin ##STR1## as well as cosmetic agents containing such branched esters of common formula A.

Use of esters of branch-chain carboxylic acids with branch-chain

A fixative for perfume compositions, 1-(2,6,6-trimethylcyclohexyl)-hexane-3-ol, itself odorless to many people, brings about a 'rounding-off' of the perfume while increasing its intensity. The compound is made by condensation of citral with pentane-2-on, followed by cyclization and hydrogenation.
