Fragrances often comprise relatively diverse sets of compounds. The components of a consumer product chassis can be similarly diverse. The color stability of fragranced consumer products is a persistent problem, and efforts to identify the compounds involved are complicated by all this diversity. Thus, methods were investigated to predict which components of a fragrance were related to the color instability from the molecular structure of the fragrance ingredient. A model will be described that classifies fragrance ingredients according to the likelihood that they will cause color instability in common consumer product chassis.
