Guest guest Posted June 23, 2003 Report Share Posted June 23, 2003 Has anyone used orris root for fixing pot pourri? I have lots of fragrant flowers in the garden and last year put them in a pot - a mixture of rose, mock orange, carnation and lavender and honeysuckle - and it smelled lovely. I have heard that 'fixing' with orris root powder prolongs the perfume, but don't know how to use it. Any suggestions will be welcome.
