From the lavender fields and herbal gardens of Southern Europe comes a plant known since antiquity as “the eye of clarity.”
Salvia sclarea, or Clary Sage, was revered by ancient healers for its power to calm the nervous system, balance the senses, and open the mind to insight and vision.

The CO₂ absolute of Clary Sage captures its full aromatic and therapeutic complexity — more complete and true than the steam-distilled oil.
Using gentle supercritical carbon dioxide extraction, the essence retains not only the volatile aromatic molecules but also the heavier esters, diterpenes, and resins that give it remarkable richness and depth.

The result is a velvety, herbaceous-floral absolute with sensual warmth and grounding elegance — a harmony of mind, body, and emotion.

Bulgarian and French producers cultivate Salvia sclarea under eco-certified and sustainable farming systems.
The CO₂ extraction process uses carbon dioxide under controlled pressure, yielding a solvent-free, pure extract with minimal environmental impact.
This gentle method preserves the plant’s full phytochemical complexity — esters, diterpenes, and antioxidants — resulting in an extract that is both ecologically and aromatically superior.

Each batch of Clary Sage CO₂ reflects the terroir of its origin — high-altitude sunlight, mineral-rich soil, and clean mountain air — contributing to its exceptional aromatic clarity.


Aroma and Olfactory Profile: 

The fragrance of Clary Sage CO₂ Absolute is warm, herbaceous, and subtly amber-like, combining freshness with balsamic sweetness.  

-Top Notes: fresh green, slightly fruity, with soft tea and hay nuances.

-Heart Notes: warm herbal, nutty, amber-floral tones.

-Base Notes: woody, musky, faintly leathery.

This aromatic complexity makes Clary Sage CO₂ both calming and sensual — a bridge between clarity and comfort.
In natural perfumery, it functions as a heart-to-base note, blending beautifully with both floral and woody accords.

Its scent profile is rounder and smoother than the essential oil, carrying a natural musky depth reminiscent of ambergris or tobacco.

Chemical Composition: 

Clary Sage CO₂ extract contains a balanced spectrum of active constituents that contribute to both its aroma and therapeutic activity:

-Linalyl acetate (35–55%) — relaxing, antispasmodic, and balancing

-Linalool — calming and anti-inflammatory

-Sclareol — a diterpene with soft, musky odor and hormone-modulating effects

-Germacrene D, β-Caryophyllene, α-Terpineol — grounding and antioxidant sesquiterpenes

-Manool and Diterpenes — contribute to the fixative, resinous base

Because CO₂ extraction preserves non-volatile molecules, this extract is richer, thicker, and longer-lasting than the steam-distilled version.

Therapeutic Benefits: 

-Relaxing & Stress-Relieving Calms anxiety, supports restful sleep, and soothes nervous tension.
-Hormone Balancing Traditionally used to harmonize female hormones and relieve menstrual discomfort.
-Antidepressant & Euphoric Uplifts mood, enhances optimism, and encourages emotional release.
-Antispasmodic Eases muscle tension and menstrual cramps in massage blends.
-Anti-Inflammatory & Skin Soothing Gentle support for redness, irritation, and reactive skin.
-Grounding & Meditative Enhances focus while promoting inner peace.

In Aromatherapy:

It is particularly appreciated in blends for menstrual comfort, meditation, and stress recovery.
Pair with Roman Chamomile, Geranium, or Ylang-Ylang for a holistic emotional remedy.

Energetically, Clary Sage is associated with clarity, intuition, and creative awakening.
It opens the third-eye and crown chakras, supporting insight and spiritual connection while grounding the emotional body.

Its scent invites stillness and surrender, making it perfect for meditation, breathwork, or self-reflection rituals.
In energetic aromatherapy, it is said to dissolve fear and tension, helping one to flow through change with grace and serenity.

-Use in dilutions no greater than 2% in leave-on skin care.
