Clary Sage Oil

This clary sage grows in the Piedmont region at the foot of the Italian Alps, at an altitude of 500–600m. It is sourced from Demeter-certified agriculture and is cultivated by experienced farmers according to the strictest biodynamic standards. This region offers the ideal climate, providing these sun-loving sage plants with the perfect conditions to fully develop their complex aroma and valuable compounds (such as linalyl acetate and sclareol).

For the production of our clary sage essential oil, only the flowering herb is harvested at the peak of its maturity. The blossom-rich harvest is then taken to a nearby distillery, where it undergoes gentle steam distillation in compliance with the highest quality standards. Years of experience and a passion for harvesting and processing are reflected in the exceptional aroma and premium quality of this essential oil.

Clary sage (Salvia sclarea) belongs to the Lamiaceae (mint) family and the Salvia genus. It grows as a branched, perennial-like biennial with large, velvety, pubescent leaves and can reach an impressive height of 1.5 metres. Originally native to the Mediterranean and Central Asia, clary sage has established itself in many parts of the world as a cultivated plant and even in the wild.

Clary sage emits a distinctive, spicy-sweet fragrance and is considered in natural medicine to be one of the most important herbs for women’s emotional balance. It has been valued for generations for gently cushioning hormonal fluctuations and strengthening emotional composure during times of inner tension. Traditionally, it was used as far back as antiquity and the Middle Ages both as a medicinal plant and for flavouring wine. Its common name, "Clary Sage" (clear eye), also refers to its historical use for cleansing the eyes.
