Clove Leaf Essential Oil

Warm, Purifying, Invigorating, Grounding

Clove Leaf essential oil offers a bold, spicy aroma that brings warmth and depth to any blend. Distilled from the leaves of the clove tree, this oil is loved for its energizing and purifying properties, making it a favorite during seasonal shifts and for freshening indoor spaces.

Its comforting scent creates a cozy atmosphere and pairs beautifully with other warming oils like cinnamon and nutmeg, as well as bright citrus and grounding woodsy notes. Clove Leaf oil is especially popular in fall and winter blends and adds richness to DIY home products, candles, and diffusers.

• Avoid contact with eyes, mucous membranes, and sensitive areas.

• If pregnant, nursing, or under a doctor’s care, consult a qualified healthcare professional before use.
• Do not ingest essential oils unless directed by a certified aromatherapist or healthcare provider.

Essential oils can enhance your well-being when used properly - please use them responsibly and enjoy their benefits as part of a balanced, natural lifestyle.

Shelf Life Guidelines:
At Saffron Herb Co., our essential oils are 100% pure and undiluted, which means their longevity depends on storage and oil type.

• Citrus oils (e.g., Lemon, Orange, Grapefruit): 1–2 years
• Most essential oils (e.g., Lavender, Peppermint, Eucalyptus): 3–4 years
• Resinous or woody oils (e.g., Frankincense, Patchouli, Sandalwood): 6+ years

To preserve the quality and extend the life of your oils:
• Store tightly sealed in a cool, dark place
• Keep away from direct sunlight and heat
• Avoid contamination by not touching the dropper to skin or surfaces

Essential oils don’t "expire" in the traditional sense, but over time, they can oxidize and lose their aroma or effectiveness. Always use your senses - if the scent has changed noticeably, it may be time to refresh your supply.
