Organic German Chamomile Essential Oil (Blue Chamomile)
ArOmisOur organic blue chamomile oil is steam-distilled from the flowers of the German chamomile plant (Matricaria recutita). Blue German chamomile oil differs from green chamomile oil in that it contains more of the powerful component, chamazulene. Chamazulene is a powerful anti-inflammatory and is what gives this oil its bright blue hue.
Blue chamomile has a stronger, sweeter aroma than its lighter counterparts, green German and Roman chamomile.
Chamomile is best known as a sedative, but it has plenty of other uses.
