Pure single-ingredient distilled clove-bud oil.

Reviewed by PurePicked

Clove Essential Oil is distilled from the dried flower buds of the clove tree, giving a strong, warm, spicy aroma. It is a versatile aromatherapy oil: add a few drops to a diffuser for a cosy, spiced room, or dilute in water or solubol to make a room spray. For any blend that touches skin, dilute it in a carrier such as coconut oil — clove is potent and should never be used neat. A single-ingredient oil that brings the depth of real clove to home and body rituals.

Why We Like It

  • A single-ingredient clove-bud oil with nothing added — distilled, not a synthetic 'clove fragrance'.
  • Distilled from the bud rather than the cheaper leaf or stem.
  • No solvents or DPG, the usual dilutants in oils sold as 'fragrance oil'.
  • It comes in amber glass, which keeps light off an oil that degrades in a clear bottle.

What to look for in an Essential Oil?
01

One line on the ingredients is what you want: the botanical name and nothing else. A 'fragrance oil' or 'perfume oil' is a different product entirely.

02

Check which part of the plant was distilled. Bud, leaf and stem oils are all sold as clove, and they are not the same thing.

03

Solvents and DPG are used to extend an oil and stretch the bottle. A pure oil names no carrier at all.

04

Amber or cobalt glass, never clear and never plastic — light and plastic both degrade an essential oil.

05

An essential oil is potent. It is diluted into a carrier oil before it touches skin, and it is never swallowed.
