Procedure
Infuse the cloves

In a small saucepan, simmer the cloves in 120 ml of water for 5 minutes.

Turn off the heat, cover, and let steep another 10 minutes to maximize extraction.

Make the flaxseed gel

While the cloves steep, boil 2 tbsp flaxseeds in 150 ml water for 6–8 minutes, stirring until the liquid thickens.

Strain through a fine sieve or cheesecloth while hot; discard seeds.

Combine the bases

Strain the clove infusion; cool both liquids to room temperature.

In a sterilized glass beaker or heat-safe jar, whisk together 2 tbsp flax gel, 100 ml rose water, and 50 ml clove infusion until homogeneous.

Fortify with actives

Stir in the cooled green-tea concentrate and aloe gel.

Add vitamin E oil (and any optional essential oils) and whisk briskly to emulsify.

Bottle and store

Transfer to a dark glass spray bottle; label and date it.

Refrigerate and use within 10 days, or extend to 3 weeks by adding ½ tsp food-grade glycerin and keeping the mixture chilled.
