Clove Bud Essential Oil

Clove Bud essential oil is a rich, spicy, and powerfully aromatic oil steam distilled from the unopened flower buds of the Syzygium aromaticum tree. Warm, sweet, and slightly woody, it embodies the true essence of clove — deep, comforting, and unmistakably festive. This is the finest and most balanced of the clove oils, prized for its smooth sweetness and rich, full-bodied aroma.

Traditionally used for its analgesic, antimicrobial, and stimulating properties, Clove Bud oil remains a classic in both natural wellness and perfumery. Its potency is matched by an elegant sweetness, making it ideal for warming blends, massage formulations, and aromatic compositions that require depth and spice.
