OK. That was a waste of half an hour of my life. Trying to search the internet for something that tells us about the true history of Orris Root.
I know this perfume fixative because I’ve used it for many years to make potpourri from old historical recipes.
The closest to what I needed was a video in Urdu!
So, I’ve gone with French.
P.S. Y’all may need a book to research this one. But here’s a clue – Orris Root has no real fragrance in and of itself. It picks up and holds fragrance for a long time. The “Ancient” Egyptians knew this.
