About this product
Uncap it and the color stops you: a deep, deep blue, like ink held up to a lamp. This German chamomile is Matricaria recutita, ethically farmed and steam-distilled from the flowers in England, and it has far and away the most pleasant aroma of any distilled German chamomile we have known.
It is an oil for the skin care cabinet rather than the diffuser; we see very little use for it in a lamp. Diluted in a carrier oil, it belongs in gentle blends for dry and sensitive skin, where its color and its soft scent both earn their place.
