Orris Root, or Iris Root, is the root of the strikingly beautiful iris flower, which grows all over the world. Special growers harvest the iris plant and grind the roots into a powder which can be used for a large range of purposes, as well as in perfumes and skin balms.
Many people used to believe that iris root powder is a "love potion" which provokes desire in people who ingest it. However, it is more properly used as a spice, such as in Ras el-hanout, a blend of spices used heavily in Moroccan cuisine.
Iris root is a botanical which is used in everything from pot pourri, to flavoured gin, to skincare products. It is fragrant, moisturising, and enhances other scents and flavours. We offer it in a dried, powdered form for use in any of your chosen applications.
