Botanical: Orris Root

Iris Flowers, whose roots are known as Orris Root Often cited by perfumers as “fixative,” which means that the herb itself helps bind the aromatics of other ingredients more tightly into the solution. The it in this case is the root of the Iris, and it has its own distinctively violet, earthy aroma. Due to its fixative properties, Orris Root has been a traditional part of the aroma accord which gives gin its distinctive flavor. It’s also among the most common botanicals in gin.
