Orris Concrete
Description
Orris concrete is a waxy, solid extract derived from the rhizomes of the iris flower, particularly the Iris germanica and Iris pallida varieties. It has a rich, powdery, and slightly floral aroma with earthy, woody undertones reminiscent of violets.
How it feels
Fragrances featuring orris concrete tend to evoke a sense of sophistication, elegance, and timelessness. The powdery, floral aroma can create a calming, luxurious mood, making it suitable for formal occasions or as a signature scent. Orris-based perfumes are often considered suitable for both men and women.
Use in perfumery
Orris concrete is a highly prized and expensive ingredient in perfumery, often used as a base note to provide depth and longevity to fragrances. It is commonly found in classic floral, chypre, and oriental-style perfumes, where it can add a sophisticated, powdery quality.
