Pure Indigenous Cape Chamomile Essential Oil is a South African steam-distilled essential oil drawn from Eriocephalus
punctulatus, an indigenous fynbos species. It is appreciated in aromatherapy for its soft apple-floral aroma and its
gentle, evening-friendly character. This oil works especially well in diffuser blends, aromatic bath rituals, and
carefully diluted topical preparations where a calming floral note is wanted. It is a concentrated essential oil and
should always be diluted before skin application.
</p>
<p>
♡ Why we love it: Cape Chamomile has a beautiful softness to it that makes it easy to use in peaceful, comforting
blends. It brings a floral warmth without feeling overly sweet, and it pairs especially well with other gentle evening
oils.
