Roman Chamomile grows close to the ground, reaching only up to a foot in height. It has grey-green leaves, flowers that resemble a daisy, and smells like apple. The plant has been nicknamed the “plant’s physician” because it has positive effects on plants growing nearby. Ancient Romans used the oil for courage during war. While the most common use of chamomile is in teas, Roman Chamomile can also be found in face creams, drinks, hair dyes, shampoos, and perfumes. Roman Chamomile provides a calming aroma and is soothing to the skin.

Buddha wood is a small tree that grows in the grazing land of eastern Australia. This sturdy shrub was traditionally used by the Aboriginal peoples. Also known as Australian Desert Rosewood, many compare Buddha Wood essential oil to common Sandalwood. With prominent balsamic and smoke notes, Buddha Wood has been commonly used in personal fragrances – often for men. Use Buddha Wood topically as part of your soothing meditative practice or try applying after physical activity.

The cananga tree is native to tropical Asia and is a member of the sugar apple family. Traditionally used in Ayurvedic health practices, Indonesians place cananga flowers on honeymooners’ pillows to guarantee a happy life. Extracted by steam distillation, Cananga essential oil comes from its vibrant yellow flowers. The same tree provides Ylang Ylang oil, although Cananga has a slightly less floral scent than Ylang Ylang oil. When looking for a natural mood elevator, Cananga improves attitude and induces calmness.
