It blends well with the essential oils of benzoin, bergamot, cistus, African geranium, lavender, lemon, marjoram, neroli, patchouli, rose, clary sage, and ylang-ylang.

An excellent fixative, chamomile essential oil is used in pharmacy (formulation of antiseptic ointments and tonic preparations) as well as a fragrance component in fine perfumery, cosmetics and soap making.
The technical and safety documentation relating to the product is available upon request.

Botany

Also known as "German chamomile", matricaria chamomile is native to Europe and northwestern Asia. Today, it is widely cultivated in Eastern Europe, especially in Hungary. It is a highly aromatic herbaceous plant, up to sixty centimeters tall, with an erect stem, laciniate leaves, and white daisy-like inflorescences.
It grows wild in meadows and open countryside, where it often becomes a weed.
