Orris Root CO₂ Extract
Premium Botanical Fragrance Ingredient from Iris pallida Roots
Iris root is considered a treasure for its unique and expensive aroma. It is one of the most prized botanical ingredients in the perfume industry, highly regarded for its elegant powdery texture, violet-like fragrance, and earthy notes.
In addition to iris root absolute, KosAroma offers iris root carbon dioxide extract, a yellow to brown liquid suitable for fine perfumes, natural fragrances, and high-end cosmetics. The percentage of irones: 2.48–2.50%. No solvent residue. Its aroma is softer and more delicate than iris root absolute, with green, moist floral notes, accompanied by soft musk and woody notes.
