2. Clove
Coming from the dried-out, exceedingly aromatic buds of a flower native to a group of Malaysian Islands, this essential oil is totally tropical. The evergreen tree, which is native to these islands, produces an essential oil to warm the cockles and tantalize the taste sensors with its powerful spiciness and gentle woody fragrances. Using this oil in a diffuser blend is something that will be repeated time and time again, whilst several other uses make it a must-have for the home.
Widely recognized for its pain-relieving applications, clove oil is medically respected. Reducing inflammation, relieving acne flare-ups, and solving digestive problems are all in a day’s work for this clever little clove. As if that wasn’t enough, bouts of nausea can be addressed, as can nausea-inducing bad breath. Many people swear by clove oil, not to be confused with cloves of garlic. Using garlic oil for freshened breath could be just about the worst mistake you could possibly make with essential oils.
