Description
A French essential oil with an herbaceous and elegant profile
Our organic clary sage essential oil is extracted in France from plants grown in carefully selected organic farms. Steam distilled, it is rich in esters, offering a subtle fragrance that is both vegetal, amber, and slightly musky.
Versatile, it integrates well into perfume creations, as well as in diffusion or food applications.
Note: For technical reasons, the vial used for the 1mL packaging has a capacity of approximately 4mL, so it is normal for it to appear about one-quarter full. The packaging is carried out using precise and calibrated laboratory equipment.

Production
Harvest
An emblematic plant of the Mediterranean
Native to the Mediterranean basin, clary sage (Salvia sclarea) is a biennial plant that naturally grows on dry, sunny, limestone soils. Cultivated since antiquity, it is known for its large aromatic leaves and majestic floral spikes, tinged with pale purple. This species is particularly distinguished by its content of sclareol, a rare molecule used in the world of perfumery.
Its cultivation in organic farming is facilitated by its hardiness: low water requirements, resistance to pests, and suitability for well-draining soils, clary sage naturally finds its place in the sustainable agriculture of southern France.
Manufacturing
An essential oil extracted locally in France
We source our organic clary sage essential oil from French producer-distillers. The production follows a process that respects the plant and its aromatic components. Here are the key steps:
-
Harvesting the flowering tops at maturity, at the peak of active compound concentration (usually between May and September).
-
Steam distillation immediately after harvest, without solvents, in copper stills.
-
Decantation to naturally separate the essential oil from the hydrosol.
-
Filtration and analytical controls ensuring a pure oil that meets the strict standards of perfumery and aromatherapy.
This process results in an essential oil with a balanced olfactory profile, rich in linalyl acetate.

Application
Main areas of application :
Flavor - Food
Perfumery
A top ingredient for chypre and masculine perfumes
With its distinctive scent blending herbaceous notes, mentholated tobacco, and amber nuances, clary sage essential oil is highly prized in perfumery. It is particularly used:
-
In chypre or aromatic accords, where it adds a dry, woody touch.
-
As a base for masculine or unisex perfumes, for its powerful vegetal tones.
-
As a substitute for certain animal notes in vegan compositions.
It is also valued as a natural fixative, extending the longevity of fragrances on the skin.
Food
A surprising note in culinary creations
Less known as a food flavoring, clary sage essential oil can be used sparingly to add a complex, slightly amber note to certain preparations. It evokes aromas of dry hay, lavender, and green tea.
Possible culinary applications:
-
In homemade syrups or liqueurs, as a unique botanical note.
-
In desserts made with yellow or dried fruits, where it creates a depth effect.
-
For flavoring vinegars or marinades, in a gastronomic approach.
Always use this essential oil in small quantities and diluted.
Aromatherapy :
A composition rich in esters
Organic clary sage essential oil is known for its richness in terpenic esters and sclareol, which contribute to its unique aromatic profile. Its typical composition:
Key components:
- Linalyl acetate (60.00 to 72.00%)
- Linalool (10.00 to 20.00%)
- Germacrene D (3.00 to 12.00%)
- Beta-caryophyllene (0.50 to 4.00%)
- Sclareol (0.10 to 1.00%)
These molecules are associated with effects traditionally recognized in diffusion, massage, or diluted application, within well-regulated practices.
