Escentia Galbanum Pure Essential Oil is a single-ingredient essential oil from Ferula galbaniflua , steam distilled from gum resin and used in aromatherapy, room fragrancing, and diluted body blends. It has an intense green aroma with woody and balsamic notes, which makes it especially distinctive in more complex essential oil blends. This is a pure essential oil, not a ready-to-use body oil or perfume. Because it is concentrated, it should always be used with care and proper dilution.

♡ Why we love it: Galbanum has a beautifully bold aromatic profile that can completely change the character of a blend. It brings a fresh green sharpness with resinous depth, making it a lovely choice for makers who enjoy unusual, more perfumery-style botanicals.
