Cape chamomile essential oil is a light to vivid blue color—a trait it shares with other oils useful for sore, tender issues (such as German chamomile and yarrow). Its relaxing aroma is sweet, fruity, and floral, with an undertone of earthy herbaceous notes.
Cape chamomile can get you through long periods of stress without sacrificing your peace of mind. Our wildcrafted cape chamomile essential oil comes from the mountain slopes of the South African coast, where the tiny white flowers are sustainably harvested and steam distilled.
