First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A fabric treatment composition comprising: from about 0.01 wt % to about 10 wt % of the fabric treatment composition of a) benefit agent capsules wherein the benefit agent capsules comprise a shell material encapsulating a core material, wherein said shell material is derived from polyvinylalcohol and a shell component, wherein said shell component is polyacrylate, and wherein the level of polyvinylalcohol is from about 0.01 to about 20%, by weight of the benefit agent capsules; said core material comprises perfume raw materials, wherein the perfume raw materials are present in an amount of from 20% to 98%, by weight of the benefit agent capsules; b) from about 0.1% to about 0.5% by weight of the fabric treatment composition of a diaminostilbene brightener having the formula the group consisting of wherein M is a suitable cation. 2. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 wherein the polyvinylalcohol has a degree of hydrolysis of about 70% to about 99%. 3. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 wherein the polyvinylalcohol as a 4 wt % solution in water has a viscosity of from about 2 mPa·s to about 150 mPa·s. 4. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 wherein the weight ratio of polyvinylalcohol to brightener is from about 1/1 to about 1/5000. 5. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 wherein the weight ratio of diaminostilbene brightener to benefit agent capsules is from 50/1 to 1/500. 6. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 wherein the level of polyvinylalcohol is from about 0.05 to about 10%, by weight of the benefit agent capsules. 7. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 wherein the level of polyvinylalcohol is from about 0.1 to about 2% by weight of the benefit agent capsules. 8. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 wherein the fabric treatment composition further comprises a surfactant selected from nonionic, anionic, cationic, zwitterionic surfactants and combinations thereof. 9. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 wherein the level of surfactant is from about 1 wt % to about 70 wt %, of the fabric treatment composition. 10. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 wherein the level of surfactant is from about 10 wt % to about 40 wt % of the fabric treatment composition. 11. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 wherein the level of surfactant is from about about 15 wt % to about 30 wt % of the fabric treatment composition. 12. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 wherein the diaminostilbene brightener is 13. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 , wherein the fabric treatment composition is a laundry detergent composition. 14. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 , wherein the fabric treatment composition is a liquid. 15. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 , wherein the fabric treatment composition further comprises from about 1% to about 50%, by weight of the fabric treatment composition, of anionic surfactant. 16. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 , wherein the fabric treatment composition further comprises from about 10% to about 40%, by weight of the fabric treatment composition, of anionic surfactant. 17. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 , wherein the fabric treatment composition further comprises nonionic surfactant. 18. The fabric treatment composition according to claim 1 , wherein the fabric treatment composition further comprises enzymes.
