ORRIS ROOT PEELED C/S ORG 4 OZUSDA Organic

I use this brand often. Decent price for orris root. Grounds well into powder, scent is as it should be, extracts nicely in tinctures. Gives proper medicinal and metaphysical properties.

I purchased this orris root to make a homemade perfume. I'd purchased orris root on Amazon before, but it wasn't nearly as fragrant as this orris root from Starwest. I actually have ordered a few Starwest herbs and all are fantastic. This orris smells like a woody violet. It's quite a beautiful scent. I soak the root in grain alcohol for 6-8 weeks to extract the scent. I purchased mine from the seller ZenHabitat. The orris root was extremely fragrant, which means it's been properly aged, and when I had a question the seller responded quickly and was very nice.

This Orris Root is beautiful and I love to use it when I make my Love and Romance Oils

This stuff is terrible. I used it to hold the scent of essential oils for potporri (I was following a recipe found online). I used some strong oils, but no matter how much oil I used, this would not hold the scent. Unfortunately it cannot be returned. Lesson learned.

I’ve never used orris root before so I don’t have a comparison. I made sachets with the 12 herbs of Winter Soltice, the orris root added a really nice earthy scent. It’s pricey, but I’m glad it spent the money. I would buy again.

Smells amazing. I use it in homemade compound gin where it really helps balance all of the different botanical flavors.

Scent and fragrance

I have purchased orris root from other sources that exudes good aroma when you open the bag. This does not have any of that if it is way to mild. Can not use for anything.
