Roman Chamomile (Anthemis nobilis) Essential Oil — 10 ml

🌿 Introduction
Roman Chamomile Essential Oil is a gentle, soothing, and floral essence steam-distilled from the daisy-like blossoms of Anthemis nobilis . Its fragrance is sweet, apple-like, and herbaceous , with a soft, calming character that has made it one of the most cherished oils for relaxation and emotional balance.
Revered since ancient times for its ability to ease the mind, comfort the body, and soothe the skin , Roman Chamomile is often called the “children's oil” because of its mildness and suitability for delicate care. In perfumery, it contributes a soft, sweet, floral-herbaceous note that blends beautifully with both florals and woods.
