What is the Genus And Species? Syzygium aromaticum (scientific name).
From what I have researched, clove also has several synonyms (same name for same plant). These are Eugenia caryophyllata, Eugenia caryophyllus, Caryophyllus aromaticus, Eugenia aromatica and Myrtus caryophyllus.
I have definitely seen Syzygium aromaticum, Eugenia caryophyllata and Eugenia caryophyllus used interchangeably and it does get confusing! If anyone finds any other information or finds this incorrect, please let me know!
Why is this Information Important? Well as you can see it is confusing when different names are used for the same plant. Additionally, there are 400 to 500 species of clove including several chemotypes.
A chemotype (CT) is a designation that tells you that the species has different chemical constituents. This usually occurs because the plant is grown in a different area under a distinct climate that alters the chemistry.
So, it is a good habit of purchasing essential oils using the common name and the genus and species.
What is the Origin of the Plant Name? Clove comes from a Latin word "clavus" meaning "nail".
Why is this Information so Important? Its not, it's just a fun fact!
What Part of the Plant is Used? Flower bud and stem
Most Interesting Historical Reference?
Did you know that Clove is contained in Hildegard’s Physica Book?
Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179) was known as the first herbalist and
naturopath of the middle ages. Her book documented her work.
What are the Plant Properties? Energizing and revitalizing; and warming.
What are the Documented Clove Uses and Benefits? Supportive of healthy mindset and attitude towards work.
What is the Aromatic Affect on the Mind? Its hot and spicy aroma brings clarity!
What is Nan's Mental (Mindset), Emotional and Spiritual Interpretation of this Oil?
Clove oil uses includes the spiritual realm as well. Clove is said to provide insight into our emotional discomfort.
How many times have something has happened only to find out later there actually was a hidden meaning behind it?
For me, all the time! But it was about eight years ago that I realized that every time I really just didn't want to go to work that day, I would manifest something that would self sabotage!
We all have days like that, but that was how I learned to "take a day off". I wasn't honoring that I needed a day off and needed to just take it on my own! That taught me how to be nourishing to myself.
So, clove can help us in this respect. It helps us reflect on the causes of our sabotage; and assists us in releasing them because they no longer serve us! By the way, Clove is in PanAway Essential Oil Blend.
What Chakra is Affected? Solar plexus, heart and throat chakra.
What is the Corresponding Chakra Color? Yellow
How Do I Use It?
Use diluted - 20:80 dilution (one part essential oil: four part of vegetable oil). Then,

Can this Oil be Used for Animals? Yes, but honestly it is such a hot oil that I use it in professionally made blends, such as Thieves or Melrose Essential Oils. If you would like to use clove than a very high level of dilution is recommended for pets.
Have your animals smell it directly from the bottle or place a drop or
two in your palm, then smell. Or place a drop in your palm and pet head
to tail to toe.
Note About Animal Use: Certain oils can be very toxic to cats. Pine and citrus oils in particular that are not of therapeutic quality! Please consult your vet if you are not sure about applying any essential oil to your pet.
I only recommend using Young Living Oils on animals at this time.
What are the Safety Precautions? First, only use therapeutic grade essential oils for best results!
Because it is approved as a Food Additive (FA) by the FDA, food grade clove oil is readily available on the market. Please remember, these are not the same oils and are often adulterated (changed).
Clove is considered non-toxic at normal usage levels and is generally regarded as safe (GRAS). Can cause extreme skin irritation therefore dilution is recommended. Always dilute before applying to the skin.
Check with your health care provider if taking a blood-thinning medication.
If pregnant or under a doctor's care, consult your physician.
Essential Oil Trivia?
Did you know that before the Dutch conquerors destroyed all the clove trees in the Spice Islands, the Penang people were very vibrant people. This happened in the sixteenth century.
Did you know that Clove was one of the ingredients found in "Four Thieves Vinegar" or "Marseilles Vinegar"? Thieves used the formula when robbing graves in the 15th century.
