Green, 2010s: Galbanum revival

Galbanum, snapped stem, tomato leaf — the smell of a florist's knife and a garden before the flowers open. Green is the florist's knife — galbanum, snapped stem and the garden before any flower opens. Green sits in the Breeze group of this atlas. Air and leaf — citrus, herbs, marine, green stems and tea steam.

Galbanum, snapped stem and tomato leaf — the florist's knife and the garden before bloom. Concentration is oil in alcohol, not a quality score. EDT (about 5–15%) shows more top; EDP (about 15–20%) shows more heart and base. Houses vary; this is not a lab assay. One or two sprays on skin or cloth — sternum or hair, not a cloud in a lift. Let it turn an hour before you add more.

Spring daylight. Night and wool can turn green into ink. Yes. Warm, moist skin amplifies sweet and spice; dry or cool skin can turn the same juice woody, soapy or short. Test on your skin, not only a blotter. IFRA sets industry limits on some naturals and synthetics. A reformulation is usually a legal edit, not a betrayal. This atlas is not a safety sheet.
