There are two types of galbanums: hard, or Persian, and soft, or Levant, galbanum. Soft galbanum contains considerably more oil and is used to produce galbanum oil. The oil is used in floral, herbaceous and forest scents where it adds a leafy character. Galbanum oil has a very strong green, dry-woody aroma. It is also an excellent fixative oil. Aromatherapy benefits: enhances self-expression and the purging of emotionaltrauma. Essential, absolute and resin oils are volatile, fragrant materials extracted from the root, bark, wood, seed, fruit, leaf or flower of a single plant. The plants used to produce these oils are grown on certified organic fields and are third-party certified by Quality Assurance International; no synthetic chemicals are used in growing or processing them. Steam distillation and cold pressing are used to extract the essential oil from the plant. Essential oils and absolutes are very potent and should always be used sparingly and in conjunction with a reliable reference. Essential oils contain the odor, taste and medicinal properties of the plant itself, but in very concentrated form, with no base oil, alcohol, water or dilutants added.
