History
Known for studding orange peels in mulled wine, cloves are a popular culinary spice. Clove essential oil’s aroma is reminiscent of the scent you would find in your spice cabinet, but more potent. Though this spice makes a pronounced and exotic addition to many recipes, the essential oil’s aromatherapy uses are even more remarkable.
Use
All essential oil blends are for aromatherapy use only and are not for ingesting!
