About the Plant:
Clary Sage is a biennial or perennial plant with velvety, grayish, heart-shaped leaves and pastel-colored flowers. The leaves and flowers are crushed and steam-distilled, producing a highly therapeutic essential oil with a potent, pleasing aroma.
Where it Grows:
Clary Sage is native to the Mediterranean basin, along with some areas of North Africa and Central Asia. Amrita® Aromatherapy is proud to have Certified Organic Clary Sage from France.
Traditional Uses and Lore:
Sclarea, part of the Latin name of Clary Sage, literally means “clear,” a nod to one of the traditional uses of Clary Sage, which was to clear mucus from the eyes. This is how Clary Sage got one of its many names, Clear Eye. Clary Sage was also prescribed in folk medicine as a compress to reduce tumors and inflammations. The versatile herb found its way into beer as a substitute for hops and as a flavoring agent in tobacco. In addition to all of the variety of uses, the ancient Greeks and Romans recognized its sensual, aphrodisiac effects.
