Camomile (Chamomile) brings to mind the words soothing, calming and relaxing, particularly in relation to skincare, and the nervous and digestive systems. Rightly so, but interestingly there are a number of different oils which all are known as camomile, and all have similar properties, all look similar, and all belong to the same plant family. German - or Blue - Camomile essential oil contains azulene which gives it its characteristic beautiful blue colour, and has a heavy sweet and herbaceous aroma. Roman Camomile essential oil is sweeter aromatically. It shares the same therapeutic properties, but it milder than German Camomile, which makes it more suitable for children, or anyone who is particularly sensitive or those with a weak constitution. Wild Camomile grows in the Atlas Mountains in Morocco and is particularly useful for skincare, is a good support for the female reproductive system, and is the best Camomile for use in perfumery. Camomile Blue Tansy is also high in azulene and has similar properties to German Camomile. The soothing quality of camomile makes it a good support for the digestive system, and the oil also has a general calming effect, soothing irritability or nervousness. It can also help to alleviate skin discomfort. Its gentle properties make camomile suitable for use with children. It blends well with Lavender, Geranium, Clary Sage, Lemon, Marjoram, and Rose.
