Clove Bud

Clove was considered a highly-prized spice worth more than its weight in gold during earlier spice trading days. Traditionally, clove was used for its immune supporting benefits, and to “cleanse” the atmosphere during seasonal illness.  The oil was used in dental procedures and tooth products due to its analgesic properties.  Diffusing the warm, spicy and slightly sweet aromatic of clove offers a comforting and inviting environment.
