Clove Leaf
Solar Plexus · Manipura · 528 Hz
Light the fire. Stand in your strength.
The most warming oil in our range — pure eugenol fire steam-distilled from the leaves of Syzygium aromaticum, the clove tree of Madagascar's spice belt. A close cousin to the better-known clove bud oil, leaf-source gives a higher eugenol concentration and a sharper, more medicinal edge. Solar Plexus chakra at 528 Hz — the seat of will, courage, and personal heat. Use sparingly: one drop in a blend brings the spice; two would overwhelm.
