Chamomile Essential Oil (Roman)

INCI Anthemis Nobilis Flower Oil

Overview

A gentle, apple-like essential oil distilled from Roman chamomile flowers.

What it is

Roman Chamomile Essential Oil is distilled from Anthemis nobilis. It carries a soft, sweet, slightly apple-like aroma, gentler than German chamomile’s more herbaceous character.

Where it comes from and how it’s made

Roman chamomile is grown widely across Europe. The flowers are steam-distilled to draw out the essential oil.

What it does in a formulation

Contributes a gentle, sweet, apple-like note to a finished product’s scent profile.

Why Lovebee uses it

Chamomile’s soft, comforting reputation carries right through into the essential oil, and we like its gentle sweetness in calmer, cozier blends.

Good to know

Used throughout our blended topical products; sold on its own as a single-note oil, it’s intended for diffuser use only.

Common questions

What does Roman Chamomile smell like?

Soft and sweet, with a gentle, apple-like quality.

Is Roman Chamomile the same as German Chamomile?

No — they’re related but distinct plants, each with their own character.

Can I apply this essential oil directly to my skin?

Not as a standalone oil — on its own, it’s intended for diffuser use only. You’ll already find it safely blended into a number of our topical products, though.
