Description

Clove Stem Oil is a natural essential oil steam-distilled from the dried stems of the clove tree, *Syzygium aromaticum*. This oil is valued for its warm, spicy, and slightly woody aroma, primarily imparted by its high eugenol content. It serves as a key aromatic and functional ingredient for manufacturers in the flavor, fragrance, and personal care industries seeking natural and cost-effective alternatives to clove bud oil.
