Orris Root

Orris root powder is the dried and ground root of the iris plant. Pleasing on its own, orris root smells similar to violets. It is used primarily as a fixative in perfumes to enhance other aromas. It has stabilizing properties that help preserve scents in things like cosmetics and potpourri. For April, our Bulk Herb & Spice team has come up with some great recipes incorporating orris root powder.
