Answer:
In acid, the smell of clove oil remains as such but in bases, the smell of clove oil vanishes.

Clove oil is an example of olfactory indicators.
Olfactory indicators are defined as the indicators whose smell vary depending on its mixing with acidic or basic solutions. These are used to detect whether the solution is acidic or basic.
