Botanical Name: Anthemis nobilis.
Aroma: Its scent is sweet, herby, fruity, and apple-like.

A weaker variety of Chamomile. Not as strong as Blue Chamomile but more appropriate for sensitive skin. Also known as Sweet chamomile, English chamomile, Nobel chamomile. Roman chamomile is generally used to treat psychological problems, beneficial for people who are short tempered, self involved, overly sensitive or rarely satisfied. It is a traditional remedy for children and is recommended when they are feeling impatient or tense. A 1% dilution of Roman chamomile oil in apricot kernel or any other carrier oil will be very useful as a massage oil over their cheeks or abdomen if the child suffers from colic or teething pain. Apply topically 'neat', diluted in a carrier, or diffuse. Also good for solar-plexus / stomach tension, and helpful with irritated skin.

Blends well with bergamot, jasmine, palmarosa, rose and ylang ylang.
