In India, greater galangal (Alpinia galanga) is valued for its use in perfumes and deodorants. It is occasionally used as an aromatic for air purifiers as well. The galangal odor profile is more like a spicy balsamic pleasant fragrance that feels warm in the airways when inhaled.
To combat bad breath, Indians commonly use galangal powder as a mouth freshener. Galangal has a unique flavor note with a slight sweetness. Galangal can also help with respiratory issues such as congestion and can help regulate breathing rate. Because of this, galangal is widely used as a nasal snuff throughout the East.

Galangal and Aphrodisiac Facts
To make perfumes and deodorants, the main ingredient we need is galangal essential oil. Galangal essential oil is hot and must be used with a carrier when applied to the skin. Because it is a hot oil, it will have aphrodisiac properties and arouse when blended with ginger, cinnamon, and clove.
The root of galangal contains essential oil with cineole, alpha-pinene, eugenol, camphor, linalool, methyl cinnamate, and various sesquiterpenes. Galangal essential oil has many benefits, such as warming, stimulating, and antiseptic. Its aphrodisiac effect is probably its best-known property. Galangal stimulates, which benefits not only concentration and thinking but also libido.
According to UCLA research entitled “Spices as Aphrodisiacs“, the Arabs have their ‘Perfumed Garden’ and the Hindus have their ‘Kama Sutra’. It was a romantic bedroom and body perfume made from some superiorly fragrant spices such as nutmeg, cloves, galangal, cardamom, and ginger. While the Romans loved cinnamon and pepper, the Chinese were most impressed by the ginger.
Some reports said perfume with galangal notes could have a euphoric and mood-lifting effect. The aroma of galangal is easily stimulating and uplifting, combating sadness, listlessness, and fatigue. It can also help with the associated loss of appetite.
