Disclosed are hair and body cleansers containing 0.05 to 40 wt. % of surfactant(s), 0.0001 to 5 wt. % of fragrance(s), and 0.1 to 10 wt. % of spherical porous polyamide particles, the percentages being in relation to the weight of the entire composition. The spherical porous polyamide particles have a number average particle diameter ranging from 1 to 30 µm, a minimum specific surface area of 5 m²/g according to BET (DIN 66131), a minimum oil absorption capacity (boiled linseed oil) of 200 ml/100 g, a minimum crystallinity (DSC measurement) of 40 percent, and a ratio between the volume average particle diameter and the number average particle diameter ranging from 1.0 to 1.5. Said particles provide a long lasting scent, absorb unpleasant odors, and increase the performance profile and the persistence of the scented impression. |
