Clove Essential Oil





Description:

All parts of this glossy, green-leaved evergreen tree smell of aromatic cloves when it is bruised. Its fragrant cream summer flowers turn a deep-pink when the stamens drop. These beautiful flowers are worn by some Asian women in their hair.

Clove spice is a sun dried, nail-shaped flower bud and those that are of good quality should release a little oil when pressed with a fingernail.

Therapeutic effects:

Cloves can be used to reduce nausea, vomiting, and flatulence and to stimulate the digestive system.

It is also a powerful local antiseptic and mild anesthetic, which may be used externally in toothache.

Uses:

The Essential oil (spicy sweet oil) is water-distilled from its buds, although lower grade oils can be extracted from the leaves, stems and stalks.

Cloves are used commercially in perfumery, cosmetics, food, drink, and dental preparations, such as toothpaste.

Caution:

The oil may irritate skin and mucus membranes.
