Galbanum Essential Oil
Adam Michael has this to say “This galbanum essential oil is produced from the crude (levant/soft) by steam distillation. The material is clear in colour and 100% pourable with a consistency similar to water. The smell is green, leafy, cool, fresh and uber refreshing in my opinion. There is something so mentally cleansing about smelling this aroma I find, comparable to a sea breeze or the freshness in the air that you experience after a wild rainstorm.
In the world of Aromatherapy, galbanum essential oil may be useful for people who are suffering with nervous tension (I can vouch for this), digestive upsets and for those wishing to regulate breathing. Across the Asian continent I have found this oil is commonly used for treating cuts, bruises, wounds and inflammations with great success. Galbanum blends well with most floral and wood oils.”

There are oils I am afraid of. Galbanum is one of them. Deep and complex, it smells sharp even in 10% dilution. I am still playing with it. 5%, 3%…I wish I could find that right amount when it will smell of green leaves. I believe it will not come on stage on its own of course. Green scent is my favourite. That is why I hope to find how Galbanum performs its best.

I would describe this as a breeze of freshly cut grass, with a serious piney attitude!

This is a nice refreshing green and grassy scent. I would describe it as deep and robust. This one strikes me as particularly potent and I’ll need to dilute it for my smaller creations.

Stunning. Galbanum is one of the rarest essences for me. It is so mysterious and all-encompassing that it is unwise not to have it in your collection. One drop is enough if you don’t want to get angry with him. If you overdo it, it’s your fault. It is a force and does not need to prove its strength in large quantities. His entire legacy is in one drop.

A Green Wind in a bottle! Experiencing this essence, I truly understand, why Galbanum was used as ‘the engine’ at the heart of legendary and pioneering ‘Vent Vert’ – in its original incarnation by Germaine Cellier for Balmain (looking on the vintage bottle of that faded glory, that has lost all of its freshness after more than half a century of life (a favorite fragrant memory of grandma).
The standard Gallbanum oils can be on occasion overly sharp, with acrid touches of too much pepper, mud or old straw, or just monotonous; blame on fast steamed, overcooked, or mishandled oils.
This rich and voluminous essence from Hermitage has no such defects, and serves perfectly its rather unique perfumeric purpose – being in nature a solid heart to base resin note – staying there to drydown, It keeps Greenery (with the capital G) alive and multifaceted through the whole perfume timeline.
It can be too piercing and overshadowing in high concentrations but easily lets itself to be enveloped in choirs of other lighter greens or heavier incenses, either in chipre, wood or herbaceous accords. It is invaluable modulator against cloying, syrupy sweetness of high flowers/vanilla blends (like Rose-White Exotics bunched bouquets), alterating them from rather old-fashioned ‘grandma purse’ vibe – into more nuanced lively resolution, bringing not just garden vegetalia but also ‘class’ and chic – as It makes magnetic fantasy effects in theshold doses with some obvious sweet oils, from Citrus to Ambrette.
On the medical side, Galbanum is a millenia-known remedy praised for its beneficial effects on aging skin – try in combination with Rose (otto) and Spikenard, just like the empress Nur Jahan did in her beauty potions 🙂
