Clove Bud Essential Oil
|
 Botanical Name: Syzgium aromaticum
Plant Part: Buds
Extraction Method: Steam
Origin: Singapore
Description: Clove is derived from the tree Syzgium aromaticum. It is a slender evergreen that grows up to 12 meters in height (approximately 36 feet). At the start of the rainy season, long buds appear. They change color over time and are beaten from the trees and dried. These are the cloves sold commercially.
Color: Light Golden Yellow
Common Uses: Clove bud essential oil is an effective agent for minor pains and aches (particular dental pain), and is helpful when battling flus and colds.
Consistency: Medium
Note: Middle
Strength of Aroma: Medium to Strong
Blends well with: other spice oils, citronella, grapefruit, lemon, orange, peppermint, rosemary, and rose.
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 and should be used in dilution. It should also be avoided during pregnancy.

I bought the clove bud oil because the clove leaf oil I had was too pungent and acrid for my tastes. I was disappointed that this oil is still pungent and acrid, and doesn't smell as much like cloves as I expected.

Fantastic aroma - warm, spicy, and fresh. Very little goes a long way. I use in a blend of orange, lavender, and cedarwood for CP soap – very seductive scent.

I've tried using clove oil before, but every clove EO I purchased had a pungent, acrid smell - nothing at all like actual cloves. There's none of that with this oil - it smells exactly the way it should: warm, rich and spicy. I haven't had time to blend it yet, but I'm already looking forward to blending it with vanilla and blood orange. Heaven!

Smells just like the spice that you use in cooking. Many applications...my favorite being that it is reported to keep mosquitos away just as effectively as deet. My family loves the scent and because of the holidays, I've been adding a few drops to my mop water and they love how it makes the house smell!

This is a wonderfully fragrant oil. It smells good enough to eat. In fact; go ahead and add a few drops to your next baked ham!! Clove is also a great quick fix for a toothache.
