Syzygium aromaticum
Couldn't load pickup availability
Clove Stem Essential Oil is steam-distilled from the stems and stalks that support the clove flower buds. Its aroma is warm, spicy, and woody with a noticeably drier profile than clove bud oil. Less sweet and more resinous, it provides a strong, grounding spice character that makes it useful in natural cleaning formulations, diffusers, and perfumery blends requiring definition and backbone.
