Galbanum Oil is a colorless to pale yellow or pale olive-yellow, mobile liquid.
Galbanum oil possesses an intensely green, fresh-leafy odor with a dry-woody undertone of balsamic, barklike character.
Galbanum oil finds extensive use, although always in very modest concentrations, in compositions of chypre, fougére, pine, forest, moss, etc., and it will introduce interesting notes in many florals where its leafy character is necessary in the completion of a true naturalness: hyacinth, violet, narcissus, lavender, gardenia, etc.
