Combine with ginger, cardamom, and cinnamon to awaken the senses and bring comfort. Clove and orange is a classic wintertime combination, and blending with Virginia cedarwood and juniper berry offers more evergreen notes. Vanilla or peru balsam are aromatically vibrant and sweet combinations for clove in perfumes. In contrast it can also be paired with bright fruity oils like grapefruit, litsea cubeba, and ylang ylang.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMassage oil or salve blends with clove oil can be used for occasional aches with other helpful oils like lavender, rosemary, cypress, or black pepper. Clove can also be combined with peppermint or fennel oils to gently rub on the abdomen for digestive discomfort. Use it in soaps with black spruce, spearmint, or tangerine. It is included in “four thieves” style blends like our Shield Blend, for its cleansing properties, and can be added to simple surface cleaning recipes with lemon oil.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClove bud oil is quite pungent and should be used sparingly in any blend. Start with one drop at a time when adding to perfume or topical formulations so it does not become overpowering or irritating to skin.
