Blue Tansy oil

Whatsapp Order

Blue Tansy Oil is a rare and highly sought-after essential oil obtained via steam distillation of the flowers of Tanacetum annuum, a Moroccan chamomile species. Known for its deep indigo-blue color and distinctive sweet, herbaceous aroma with subtle fruity undertones, this oil is rich in chamazulene — a powerful anti-inflammatory compound that gives it its characteristic blue hue.

Blue Tansy Oil is celebrated in the cosmetic and personal care industry for its calming, soothing, and skin-balancing effects. It is especially beneficial in formulations for sensitive, irritated, or inflamed skin. In aromatherapy, it is valued for promoting relaxation and emotional ease. Its rarity and potency make it a premium choice for high-end skincare, therapeutic blends, and luxury personal care products.
