roots (orris root) contain only a tiny amount of this precious oil.
Pure natural oil is expensive and rare. It yields a warm and comforting
fragrance healing to emotional hurts and dissolving of mental blocks.
In the healing arts, iris is regarded as cleansing, especially for the
blood and skin. It is included in the most precious skin lotions to
nourish and cleanse. Spiritually, iris is treasured for stimulating
love, intuition, imagination and creativity.
Orris Root - Fleur de Lys
The dried rhizome of this and other Iris species provides orris root
which smells of violets (Viola, fam. Violaceae) and which yields essence
of violets used in perfumery. Orris root in raw form, which formerly
accounted for many allergic reactions, has been replaced by a refined
orris root oil which is considered to be non-reactive (Burks 1962).
Used internally for coughs and catarrh. Added to breath fresheners
and dusting powders. Also used as a fixative in in perfumery and pot-pourris.
