Abstract
An improvement is described in microemulsion compositions containing an anionic detergent, one of the specified cosurfactants, a hydrocarbon ingredient and water which comprises the use of a water-insoluble odoriferous perfume as the essential hydrocarbon ingredient in a proportion sufficient to form either a dilute o/w microemulsion composition containing, by weight, 1% to 10% of an anionic detergent, 2% to 10% of cosurfactant, 0.4% to 10% of perfume and the balance water or a concentrated microemulsion composition containing, by weight 18% to 65% of anionic and nonionic detergent, 2% to 30% of cosurfactant, 10% to 50% of perfume and the balance water which upon dilution with water will yield said dilute o/w microemulsion composition.
