Understanding of the residual odour of fatty esters used as emollient in cosmetic products.

A novel measurement approach was presented to analyse trace odours of fatty esters and the results will be useful to control their deodorization by targeting appropriate strategies with the aim to either avoid the formation or remove the identified odorant compounds. This study may be further expanded by investigating the impact of deodorization on odour-active compounds for a complete understanding of their contribution to the fatty ester global odour.
