Cloves are the dried buds of the syzgium aromaticum tree. The buds are harvested from the tree before they open, then dried and sold commercially. Our clove oil is steam-distilled from buds grown in Indonesia.

Common Uses:
Clove oil is a very warming oil that can also numb oral tissue. Diffuse for added protection during the cold season, or apply topically in 1-2% dilution.

Fun Fact:
Some natural dentists use clove to pack cavities or root canals when the patient needs to come back to finish their dental work.

Aromatic Scent:
Clove Bud Essential Oil smells spicy and rich like actual cloves.

History:
The word clove comes from the Latin word clavus, meaning nail, since the shaft and head of the clove bud resembles a nail. Cloves and nutmeg were among the most precious of items of Europe of the 16th and 17th centuries, and they were worth more than their weight in gold.

Cautions:
Clove Bud Oil can cause sensitization in some individuals and should be used in dilution.
It should also be avoided during pregnancy.
