Abstract

An aqueous fabric spray composition, comprising: a. 1-10 w.t. % silicone, wherein the silicone is in the form of an emulsion, the an emulsion having a particle size of 100 to 30 um b. Free perfume, having an emulsion particle size of 1 nm to 30 μm.

Claims (21)

1. A fabric spray composition, comprising:

1 to 10 w.t. % silicone in the form of a first emulsion having a particle size of 150 nm to 30 μm; and

free perfume in the form of a second emulsion having a particle size of 1 nm to 30 μm;

wherein the second emulsion is not encapsulated, and the fabric spray composition is aqueous.

2. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises 0.0001 to 10 w.t. % free perfume.

3. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the composition further comprises a malodour ingredient.

4. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the free perfume composition comprises at least 10 w.t.% blooming perfume ingredients.

5. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the silicone has a molecular weight of 1,000 to 500,000.

6. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein

the silicone comprises functionalised silicone.

7. The composition according to claim 6 , wherein the functional group(s) on the functionalised silicone are located in pendent positions on the silicone chain.

8. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the silicone comprises non-functionalised silicone.

9. The composition according to claim 8 , wherein the non-functionalised silicone is a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) polymer.

10. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the silicone is selected from the group consisting of carboxy functionalised silicone anionic functionalised silicone, non-functionalised silicone, and mixtures thereof.

11. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the silicone composition comprises an amine content of 0.001 to 3 meq/g.

12. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the silicone composition comprises a polydimethylsiloxane polymer.

13. A method of rejuvenating fabric, the method comprising:

spraying a composition onto the fabric, wherein the composition comprises:

1 to 10 w.t. % silicone in the form of a first emulsion having a particle size of 150 nm to 30 μm; and

free perfume in the form of a second emulsion having a particle size of 1 nm to 30 μm,

wherein the second emulsion is not encapsulated, and the fabric spray composition is aqueous.
