Described is a process for preparing a genus of substituted 1-acetyl-3,3-dimethylcyclohexanes having the structure: STR1 wherein R1 or one or both of R2 and/or R3 is allyl or methallyl and the other of R1 or R2 and/or R3 is hydrogen, a process for preparing same by means of reacting an allyl or a methallyl halide with acetyl-3,3-dimethyl-cyclohexane using a base according to the reaction: STR2 wherein R is allyl or methallyl and wherein X is chloro or bromo. When such 1-acetyl-3,3-dimethylcyclohexane derivatives are added to consumable materials: (i) In foodstuffs and medicinal products, pineapple, allyl caproate-like, galbanum, woody, fatty, sweet, fruity, citrus, green and vegetable-like aromas and rosey, ionone, Oriental-like, woody, fatty, sweet, fruity, citrus, vegetable-like and waxy flavor characteristics are augmented or enhanced; (ii) In perfumes and perfumed articles, sweet, earthy, animal, green, herbaceous, melony and fruity aromas with pineapple, ambery, galbanum-like, ginger-like and citrusy nuances and tobacco/animal notes are imparted, augmented and/or enhanced; and (iii) In tobaccos and tobacco flavors, green, sweet, fruity, floral and Virginia tobacco-like flavor and aroma nuances are augmented and/or enhanced in the main stream and in the side stream on smoking and, in addition, prior to smoking.
