CLARY SAGE
Clary sage has a complex, herbaceous scent profile with green, earthy, and slightly nutty nuances. It offers a clean, fresh aroma with subtle woody undertones and a slightly sweet, musky character. The scent is both calming and slightly euphoric, with a unique herbal complexity that sets it apart from common sage.
Origin & Extraction
Clary sage is native to the Mediterranean region, particularly found in southern France, Italy, and parts of North Africa. The essential oil is extracted through steam distillation of the leaves and flowering tops of the Salvia sclarea plant. The extraction process captures the plant's volatile aromatic compounds, producing a high-quality essential oil used in perfumery and aromatherapy.
