Organic Clove Leaf Essential Oil

The scent of Clove Leaf oil is unmistakable—it's the warm, spicy, and slightly woody aroma that immediately brings to mind cozy autumn days. Our oil is distilled from the leaves of the clove tree, which gives it a slightly more herbaceous character than the oil from the sweeter buds. It's then 'redistilled' to purify it, resulting in a smoother, more refined aroma.

Clove is a very powerful and potent oil. Its main chemical component, eugenol, is responsible for its strong aroma and its remarkable purifying and antimicrobial properties. We use it in carefully measured amounts in our most robust cleansing soaps and in blends designed to create a feeling of warmth and comfort.

Its warming sensation is particularly useful in massage oils or balms for soothing tired, overworked muscles. When used in a diffuser blend, it can create a wonderfully cozy and protective atmosphere, especially during the colder months. It’s an oil that feels both cleansing and comforting.

We must be honest about its strength. Clove is a hot oil that can be irritating if not used in a very low, safe dilution. We formulate with this respect and caution in mind, ensuring you get all the benefits without the risk. Our organic oil is sourced from Indonesia, where the clove tree is native.
