    Essential Oils

    CAS: 8002-73-1 Classification: Base Note[i]

    Orris Pallida Butter (sometimes called concrete) is a solid essential oil that strikes with its signature powdery violet character—soft yet penetrating, creamy yet dry. This waxy white material captures the essence of aged iris rhizomes from Italian Tuscany, rich in gamma-irone that develops only through years of patient maturation. Its scent hovers between floral delicacy and woody earthiness, with unexpected fruity facets that peek through like raspberry sherbet dusted with cocoa.

    Use this precious material primarily as a fixative where its tenacity amplifies and anchors surrounding notes without dominating them. Pair it with rose absolute and sandalwood to build elegant floral-woody structures, or combine it with vetiver and labdanum for sophisticated chypre bases. Its powdery character transforms aldehydic compositions, whilst its fatty richness smooths sharp citrus and adds creamy depth to berry accords. Apply it sparingly—even at high dilution, its strength emerges dramatically in the dry-down.

    We also stock Orris Germanica butter.

    General Information

    Like most suppliers and makers of quality raw materials for fragrances, we do not filter many of our products. This ensures that no odiferous matter is lost prior to use but can result in the appearance of small particles or slight clouding.

    All alcoholic fragrances should be macerated for up to a month and then chilled in a moderate freezer overnight before being filtered fine. This will remove all cloudiness or detritus and is the industry norm.

    IFRA Standards

    Permitted amounts in finished product:

    These are derived from calculated concentrations which do not replace chromatographic quantification on individual lots. Disclaimer...

    For Trade Use Only
