Focus on Chamomile (Roman) (Chamaemelum Nobile)

Chamomile has a sweet, warm, herbal, rich, apple-like fragrance. Chamomile has been said to be profoundly calming on the emotional level, which means it may be beneficial to those who tend to be hyperactive, workaholics or those who worry a lot. The oil is distilled from the flowers and leaves.

This oil blends very well with lavender, rose, geranium, clary sage, jasmine, lemon, bergamot and orange
