Orris Root Absolute Oil has a soft, warm, and powdery floral aroma with a hint of earthiness. It is widely used in natural perfumes, aromatherapy, and luxury skincare products. This precious oil is extracted from the aged roots (rhizomes) of the Iris germanica plant, carefully sourced and processed in India.
Orris Root Absolute Oil is rare and highly valued in perfumery because of its long-lasting fragrance and smooth, violet-like scent. Its calming aroma helps create a peaceful mood and adds depth and elegance to perfumes, creams, and body care products.
