The present invention provides a sustained-release aromatic, characterized in that the aromatic comprises at least one perfume derivative as an active component selected from glycosides of perfumes, phosphoric acid ester derivatives of perfumes, amino acid derivatives of perfumes and carboxylic acid derivatives of perfumes, and contains no enzyme or acid which decomposes the perfume derivative, wherein the perfume derivative is decomposed by bacteria usually present on the skin or yeast to release a perfume component to exhibit aroma. The present invention also provides a method for the detection of micro-organisms using the aforesaid sustained-release aromatic. As the sustained-release aromatic of the present invention releases a perfume component only when it is decomposed by micro-organisms such as bacteria usually present on the skin or yeast, the amount of perfumes to be used can be extremely reduced. The sustained-release aromatic of the present invention is also excellent in keeping aroma. The stability with the passage of time of the sustained-release aromatic of the present invention is much better than that of the prior art because the perfume component is contained in the form of derivative. The sustained-release aromatic of the present invention is useful for applications on the skin, head skin or hair of human beings or animals, on clothes, or in drinks and foods, or as an indicator for detecting micro-organisms.

生物被通常存在于皮肤上的细菌或酵母分解,释放出香
水成分,从而表现出芳香。本发明还提供了一种使用上述缓释芳香剂检测微
生物的方法。由于本发明的缓释芳香剂只有在被通常存在于皮肤或酵母上的细菌等微
生物分解时才会释放香
水成分,因此可以大大减少香
水的用量。本发明的缓释芳香剂在保持芳香方面也非常出色。由于香
水成分以衍
