Product Brochure:
Chamomile German CO2 Extract has a less powerful aroma than steam distilled Chamomile German. It is softer, more herbaceous, and "truer" to the scent of the flower. The CO2 Extract version also does not have the expected deep blue color of the steam distilled oil. Chamazulene, the component that gives Chamomile German its blue color, develops during the steam distillation process. However, Matricine, a component which is the precursor to Chamazulene, is proven to be even more potent in its effects, making Chamomile German CO2 Extract the preferred oil to use to help protect and soothe dry or reddened skin.
Use Chamomile German CO2 Extract in salves, balms, and ointments designed to help protect and soothe dry winter skin or skin reddened from sun or wind. Chamomile German CO2 Extract can help soothe baby's bottom in a diaper area ointment or balm. For facial skin, it reduces the appearance of redness or blemishes. You need very little of this powerful CO2 to get excellent results; we recommend 0.1-0.2% in skin blends.

Useful Oil
I bought this for a lung blend I make along with several other oils. I\'m not a huge fan of the scent but the therapeutic properties can\'t be beat! My chest congestion and smoker\'s hack (although I have never smoked) have all but disappeared after a week of the blend! This oil is a great addition to my collection!
Smells great!
Used 1 drop of this oil in the diffuser and it smells so good and relaxing, just like the tea!
Excellent co2, more complex therapeutics than eo counterpart
I\'ve been really getting into co2s lately, and I\'ve never been a fan of the scent of the Chamomile family, but this is a very pleasant fruity co2. I bought it because I was after the therapeutics present in the co2 version versus the steam distilled.
Strong scent
I am new to EO\'s so I feel like I can\'t pick out the apple scent that some of the other reviews noted. I bought this because other reviewers said that compared to other chamomiles this one smelled more like chamomile tea. My favorite tea is a chamomile blend so I can understand my preference to feel the need to blend this with something else because I don\'t like the scent on its own (personal preference so not docking any stars). It is very potent, a little goes a long way, the 1 drop/30ml recommended dilution is still a little strong for my sensitive nose, but I guess that only means this bottle will last me more uses which I am ok with.
Great!
A very useful to oil to have for stressful moments and in combination with lavender it makes for a great sleep-aid!
