Orris Butter ( Irones)

About this material

Orris Butter opens with a soft, powdery floral scent reminiscent of violet, layered with a subtle earthiness that gives it a rich, velvety texture. As it develops, the scent becomes more complex, revealing a creamy, slightly woody undertone that adds depth without overpowering other notes. This material is essential in creating a luxurious, smooth base in compositions, often used to enhance floral and gourmand accords. It pairs well with citrus notes for brightness, or with woods and resins to create a more grounded, sophisticated profile. The typical usage in formulas ranges from 0.090% to 1.30%, with a common concentration around 0.270%.
