Product Overview

The captivating scent of our Clary Sage essential oil from France is fresh, warm, sweet yet somewhat bitter herbaceous with tea and soft tobacco undertones. In natural perfumery, Clary Sage is a material that is often used in formulations for plant-based musk-type bases[1], for example, with Ambrette Seed, Angelica, Patchouli, Labdanum, Balsam of Peru, and smaller amounts of other materials. "It is a valuable additive in Eau de Colognes … and makes an excellent fixative."[2]

Salvia sclarea is a perennial native to the Mediterranean region, growing wild in France, Germany, North Africa, parts of Italy, and also on the Crimean Peninsula. It is cultivated in France, Bulgaria, Hungary, Russia, England and the US. The green parts of the plant and especially the flowering tops yield the essential oil containing more than 250 constituents, up to 75 percent of which is linalyl acetate, the ester form of linalool.[3],[4] The abundance of this ester makes Clary Sage a valuable addition to calming baths, diffuser blends, massage oils, chest and belly rubs, beard oils, and scalp and skin preparations.
