Clove Leaf Essential Oil

Original designation: Girfole feuille HE

Syzygium aromaticum (L.) Merr. & L.M.Perry

Clove leaf is drier, greener and woodier than the rounded bud, with a forthright eugenol signature. It gives vintage spice and carnation structures a crisp, almost architectural edge.

At the perfumer’s organ

In the organ, use it to build dry spice accords, enrich leather structures and introduce incense woods. As top note, it offers signature rather than mere theme.

  • leather structures
  • incense woods
  • carnation support

Extraction & expression

An essence belongs to the more volatile, mobile side of the palette. Depending on the botanical, it may come from distillation or—in explicitly expressed citrus grades—from mechanical pressing, bringing immediacy and lift.
