Question 1

Is this clary sage (Salvia sclarea) or common sage (Salvia officinalis)?

Accepted Answer

This product is clary sage (Salvia sclarea). Its oil is linalool- and linalyl acetate-dominant, with a soft, floral, slightly balsamic aroma — one of the most commonly used aromatherapy sage species. It does NOT replace common sage (Salvia officinalis), which is thujone-, camphor- and cineole-dominant and far more pungent and herbaceous. The two oils serve different applications.

Question 2

How should the 10 ml clary sage essential oil be stored and how long does it keep?

Accepted Answer

Store in a cool, dark place below 25 °C, in a tightly closed bottle. Unopened, Salvia sclarea oil typically keeps for 2-3 years. Once opened, it is advisable to use the content within 12 months, as oxygen gradually alters the aromatic profile and may reduce the active component ratio.

Question 3

Can this clary sage essential oil be applied directly to the skin, or does it need to be diluted?

Accepted Answer

As a general rule, essential oils should be diluted in a carrier oil (e.g. sweet almond, jojoba) at typically 1-2% concentration for skin preparations. Salvia sclarea is generally well tolerated, but a patch test is recommended for sensitive skin. During pregnancy, breastfeeding and for use on children, please consult a qualified professional.
