Clove Bud (Eugenia caryophyllus)

Clove bud oil has a penetrating and spicy aroma with a strong base note.

The clove oil comes from the buds of the Clove tree,  a tall evergreen indigenous to Indonesia. Most clove oil is now cultivated and exported from Sri Lanka.
Clove essential oil is extracted from the buds via steam distillation.
