The proportion is something that is quite not fixed and a person can quite play to some extend with the proportion.

It includes the following:

4 drops of oil of galbanum

4 drops of oil of myrrh

4 drops of oil of cardamom

The proportion can change depending on what you want should be more prominent as a smell. Equal quantity of all three would mean that there would be mild degree of each of them smelling.
