Believed to be the preferred incense to petition the oracle for answers,Gum Ammoniacum is thought to have served the same purpose at the Greek oracle at Delphi. The name has persisted even though the oracles are no longer used as they once were.

This resin has a lovely “green” fragrance, similar to, but softer and sweeter than that of its cousin Galbanum which is used in perfumery. Where Galbanum has a green and very dry scent, Ammoniacum has a fragrance that could be described as golden green, fresh, penetrating and nourishing.

With its unique fragrance profile, it could provide an interesting addition to the perfumer's palette as a tincture or essential oil.
