This clove essential oil is usually obtained by steam distillation from the leaves, stems and buds of the Eugenia caryophyllata tree, which is native to Indonesia and the Malacca Islands. This is a powerful oil with a warm, strong, spicy aroma and must be highly diluted and used with great care in aromatherapy.
Clove oil can be used to heal or alleviate acne, bruises, cuts and burns, and leg ulcers, and as a pain reliever for rheumatism and arthritis. It is also said to be good for the digestive system and helps with vomiting, diarrhea, flatulence, spasms and parasites. It is considered valuable for relieving respiratory problems such as bronchitis, asthma and tuberculosis.
In aromatherapy, this essential oil stimulates the mind and acts as an aphrodisiac. It removes mental exhaustion and fatigue and induces sleep in insomniacs.
Clove was used in folk medicine in ancient India and China. It is believed that ancient Chinese medicine used clove to treat indigestion, diarrhea, hernia, athlete's foot and fungal infections. It has been used in these countries since ancient times to treat mouth ulcers, toothache and as a breath freshener. It was one of the first spices to be traded. It is said that Arab traders introduced clove to Europe during the time of the Roman Empire.
