Abstract
Abstract PCT No. PCT/EP93/01366 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 14, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 14, 1994 PCT Filed Jun. 16, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/25185 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 23, 1993.A perfumed composition is described containing a cationic phospholipid, a perfume base having microbial action, and a fatty alcohol having 10 to 22 carbon atoms, extremely useful in deodorants and antiperspirants. Its anti-microbial activity is greater than that of known compositions, and can be measured by the direct spray method using the device shown in the FIGURE.
