About Clary Sage Essential Oil

Clary Sage essential oil is extracted from the flower tops and leaves of the perennial herb plant Clary Sage (Salvia sclarea), which is native to Eastern Europe and central Asia, though the oil is usually taken from plants grown in France, England and Morocco. This plant can grow to about 2 foot in height, but can be as tall as 1 metre (3 foot).

Clary Sage essential oil has a strong, sweet nutty aroma, which some people may consider unpleasant, whilst others may find it very appealing depending much on personal taste.
