The answer is neither. Out of your examples, it is closer to the E, if it stressed, in love. Not the O. I don't believe there's really a word in English that has the phonetics. There aren't any I can think about at the top of my head, anyhow. You might want to check IPA, or google French phonetics. Here's a YouTube link for a collection of French sounds; what you're looking for is at 0:29. http://youtu.be/nhH51nv8k1Y

No, it's more like the "e" in "sister" or the "u" in "fur".

When emphasized, lips like French ô, tongue like French é. When not stressed, generally silent.
