Product Description Clove Bud Oleoresin 24% VOC extensively used as domestic spice worldwide.

What is clove bud oil? Clove Bud Essential Oil is water-distilled from the Clove tree, Syzygium aromaticum, and has a strong aroma that blends well with other warming essential oils. This spicy essential oil is commonly used to help with endurance and to gain strength when determination and assertiveness are needed. Clove Bud and Clove Leaf essential oils are from the same plant, but the smell and strength of each is completely different. Clove bud essential oil is much heavier and stronger, making it an excellent addition for diluted formulas or for diffuser blends.
