Clove Bud Essential Oil

Our organically crafted Clove Bud Essential Oil is steam distilled from the blossoming, tiny, crimson buds of the Eugenia caryophyllata (syn Syzygium aromaticum) evergreen tree growing wild in the forests of Indonesia. With its rich, warm, sweet-spicy, eugenolic aroma, Clove Bud Oil offers numerous applications within beauty, cosmetic, aromatherapy and soapmaking applications.

Due to its exceptional antioxidant capabilities and its efficacy as a dietary supplement, Clove Essential Oil has been included in many recipes for health and long life. The main chemical component of the oil is Eugenol, which is also responsible for Clove Oil's strong fragrance. Eugenol is also an important molecule for modern dentistry that is still found in pharmaceuticals today for toothache and gum complaints.

REPORTED BENEFITS AND USES

Clove Bud Essential Oil is most widely used to help with minor pain and inflammation management, especially the pain associated with dental problems. Applied topically in extremely low dilution and with the help of other oils, Clove Oil assists in restoring ease and comfort to tired, fatigued or overworked bodies. Spicy and heart warming, Clove Bud Essential Oil is a powerful cleaner for the home, especially during seasonal illness, when looking to minimize unwanted bacterial, viral, or fungal activity.
