Cloves have been cultivated for at least 2,000 years. They were an important part of the spice trade and were highly valued for their medicinal properties. The essential oil is steam distilled from the flower buds; the part used for cooking and produces the familiar sharp, spicy, fruity scent.

Clove is a warming, stimulating oil with pain relieving and antiseptic properties. It has an ability to soothe and numb the pain of a toothache and also numbs the pain of arthritis, rheumatism, and sore muscles when well diluted in a carrier oil and rubbed on the painful area. Sucking on a Clove bud can help when you are trying to stop smoking. Using Clove as a room spray helps repel insects but also imparts a sense of warmth and helps to lift despondent feelings.

PROPERTIES: Antiseptic, antispasmodic, digestive stimulant, sedative, warming.

BLENDS WELL WITH: Orange, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Sandalwood, Lavender, Ylang Ylang, Bergamot.

PRECAUTIONS: Use Clove in moderation and always dilute well with concentrations of no more than 2% to prevent skin irritation. If you have sensitive skin, conduct a patch test before use.

For a household deodorizer: Using a glass atomizer, combine 3 drops each of Bergamot and Clove in 2 oz. water for a room spray that kills germs and keeps insects at bay. Shake well before each use.

For a festive room fragrance: Use six drops Clove in the diffuser to create a warm and pleasant atmosphere that is welcoming to family and friends.

For the relief of a toothache: Using a cold compress, dilute 1 drop Clove Oil in warm water. Immerse a cloth in the mixture and place gently against the painful tooth. Medical attention is highly recommended in the case of an abscess.

For a disinfectant mouthwash: When diluted in water, a single drop of Clove oil helps to disinfect the mouth and leave breath fresh.
