Clove Bud Essential Oil
Our Clove Bud (Eugenia caryophylatta) essential oil from India is therapeutic quality essential oil steam distilled from the buds.
Clove is a familiar spice and comes from an evergreen tree that grows up to twelve feet in height. At harvest time the branches are beaten with sticks, causing the buds to fall to the ground. The fragrant buds are then gathered and dried to be used in the spice and perfume industries. The essential oil is extracted by distillation from the buds.
Clove Bud Essential Oil Uses
Clove Bud essential oil has been described by some aromatherapists as a natural analgesic and natural antiseptic and today it’s used primarily in dentistry for its main ingredient, eugenol. It has been, and still is, widely used as a home remedy for toothache and less commonly these days for flatulence and nausea. It consists of 60–90% eugenol, eugenyl acetate, caryophyllene, and other minor constituents.
Essential Oil Safety Considerations

The clove scent is incredible, exhilarating, and perfectly spicy. I bought this with cinnamon EO and I made a blend of Four Thieves and it’s wickedly good. Clove bud deters ants for a short while and will make your kitchen smell lovely. Artisan Aromatics is a wonderful company to work with, buy from, and support.
