About Roman Chamomile Essential Oil

Roman chamomile oil is distilled from the flowers of Anthemis nobilis, a low-growing perennial and the second of the two chamomiles we offer.

The aroma is sweet, apple-like, and herbaceous, softer and fruitier than German chamomile.

It is a favorite in evening diffuser blends, gentle skincare blends, and natural perfumery.

Roman Chamomile's Path to the Bottle

The Flowers

Roman chamomile oil starts with the flowers of Anthemis nobilis, a low-growing perennial.

Steam Distillation

The flowers are steam distilled to draw out the oil and its sweet, apple-like aroma.

Bottling

The oil is bottled and stored away from heat and light to protect that aroma.

What Sets Roman Chamomile Apart

Chamomile oil comes from two different plants, and the two oils smell different. Roman chamomile oil is distilled from the flowers of Anthemis nobilis and smells sweet, apple-like, and herbaceous, softer and fruitier than German chamomile.

We sell both, so you can compare them side by side. The shop page lists each chamomile oil with its botanical name, sizes, and prices.

Chamomile Questions

What is the difference between Roman and German chamomile oil? ▾
Roman chamomile oil is distilled from the flowers of Anthemis nobilis and smells sweet, apple-like, and herbaceous, softer and fruitier than German chamomile. Both oils are available in the shop.
How much chamomile oil does a diffuser blend need? ▾
Very little. Start with two or three drops in a six to eight drop blend. Pair it with lavender, sweet orange, or cedarwood and let it sit in the background rather than lead. Our diffuser guide lists ratios to start from.
Which carrier oils pair best with chamomile for skincare blends? ▾
Jojoba and sweet almond are the usual partners because they are light, mild in scent, and let chamomile's apple note come through. For richer balms, blend it into shea butter or a coconut oil base. Whatever the base, patch test a small area before wider use.
What sizes does Roman chamomile oil come in? ▾
Roman chamomile oil is sold from 0.5 oz sample bottles up through 16 oz, and in 5 lb, 25 lb, and 400 lb bulk sizes.
