She pursuaded Italian perfumers to assist – Italy being the world centre of perfumery at the time. It was then that Orris Butter was first used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrris Butter is the steam distillation of the rhizome of Iris Pallida (Violet). It is strange to use the rhizome as it has no odour when first picked, but when stored in a warm oven for three years, it slowly develops an aroma.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is one of the most highly prized materials on a perfumer’s palette as it can not only fix a perfume, but adds a luxurious smoothness that is truly a heavenly gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnfortunately it’s beauty is matched by its price and Orris Butter is now the most expensive fragrance raw material in the world. Its eye-watering price has meant that its use in modern perfumery today virtually all but vanished, being replaced with synthetics - which of course lack the magic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe are proud to be able to say that 100% natural Cyrten has been used to create our “Extrait de Parfum - Orris Route”. We know that for some people, it will become one of their most cherished perfumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"mak-perfumenotes\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eTop Notes: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLemon and Eucalyptus\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eMiddle Notes: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCypriol and Elemi Resinoid\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eBase Notes: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrris, Indian Sandalwood and Ambergris\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat are notes? each fragrance is broken down into 3 parts, the Top, Middle and Base notes.
