Lori:
That's absolutely beautiful! Does it have a perfume-like fragrance?
17 Jun, 2009
Yes it does D1... I know that iris is one of the ingredients in Vera Wang's "Princess" fragrance. The root of the iris (orris root - or more accurately, a powder made from the root) is used to give staying power to a fragrance. but the aroma of the blossom is heavenly. (wouldn't you know~ I'm allergic to orris root or certain fragrances in which it is prevalent!? I sneeze my head off.) Thanks Bernieh!

Lori, my name is David, not Thomas, heehee.
Could you, perhaps, do me a wee favour? I've lost lots of my "chocolate" notes during my move, and have given up searching my inbox here. What was the name of that lady connected with the story of chocolate in the books - sounded like Ms Frizzell, or something, from memory. Yes, I want to get on her trail again. Much obliged! :-) X
