galingale

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'something aromatic' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'girl during storm' is the wordplay.
'girl' becomes 'gal'.
'during' becomes 'in' (e.g. during February means in February).
'storm' becomes 'gale' (a gale is a windy storm).
'gal'+'in'+'gale'='GALINGALE'

'finds' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for galingale that I've seen before include "Plant" , "flower" .)
