The galbanum scent is green, resinous, and slightly earthy, offering a sharp, herbaceous aroma with a vibrant, fresh-cut quality. Its bold, vegetal profile makes it a must-have for crafting invigorating, natural fragrances.
Extracted from the resin of the Ferula plant, galbanum is rich in compounds like beta-pinene and myrcene, which contribute to its raw, leafy character. It’s often found in top or heart accords, where it provides a crisp, green lift to chypre, floral, or woody compositions.
Compared to similar green notes like vetiver or grass, galbanum is more intense and resinous, with a slightly bitter edge. Perfect for candles, diffusers, and body care products, the galbanum scent adds a bold, outdoorsy freshness to your creations.
Listed below are all the fragrance oils in our collection which utilize galbanum in their scent make up.
