About

Galbanum is a green, resinous fragrance note with a sharp, bitter, and slightly woody aroma. It evokes a fresh, vibrant, and somewhat earthy character reminiscent of crushed green leaves and pine needles, often imparting a crisp, natural brightness to compositions. In perfumery, galbanum is typically used to add depth and complexity to green and woody accords, enhancing freshness and providing an aromatic backbone. It is especially popular in chypre and fougère fragrances, where it contributes a distinctive, invigorating green sharpness.
