What is Clove Essential Oil?
Clove (Eugeniacaryophllata Thunb.) is a tree clove of the genus Syzygium in the Myrtaceae family. Clove oil is an essential oil extracted from clove buds.

According to a 2017 in vivo study, eugenol extract containing eugenol inhibited the activity of Propionibacterium acnes and reduced the associated inflammatory response in a mouse model.
