$44.17$39.40Save 11%
Clary sage oil is steam-distilled from the flowering stems of Salvia sclarea, a lilac-blossomed biennial once prized by winemakers for its natural sclareol. The scent is sweet, dry, and softly herbal, carrying nutty, tea-like undertones that settle gently into the heart of any blend.
Muscatel Heritage: naturally occurring sclareol once made clary sage a companion to winemaking, deepening muscatel character long before it became a perfumery staple.
Verified Purity: every bottle is 100% pure and undiluted, matching the specifications on our published Certificate of Analysis.
Ten Sizes: available from a 0.5 oz sampler bottle up to 400 lb drums, so hobbyists and formulators buy from the same batch.

Bulk Orders Welcome
We happily fill bulk orders for clary sage oil, from a handful of pounds to full drums. Every size, from 0.5 oz sample bottles to 400 lb containers, comes from the same standard batch, so formulators, soap makers, and resellers can order with confidence.
Clary sage oil is a concentrated botanical extract meant to be diluted before use. For skin application, mix at 0.5% to 2% in a carrier oil such as jojoba or sweet almond, and always patch test first. Keep it away from eyes, children, and pets, avoid ingestion, and store the sealed bottle in a dim, temperature-stable spot.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this clary sage oil pure, and how can I verify it? ▾
Yes. Every bottle of our clary sage oil is bottled 100% pure and undiluted, with no fillers or synthetic additives. You can review the exact test results for the batch behind your bottle in our Certificate of Analysis, published for full transparency.
How is clary sage different from regular garden sage oil? ▾
Clary sage comes from Salvia sclarea, a distinct species from the common culinary sage plant. Where garden sage oil is sharp and camphoraceous, clary sage is sweet, dry, and softly herbal with nutty, tea-like undertones, making it a gentler, muskier alternative for blending.
What does clary sage smell like and which scents complement it? ▾
Clary sage carries a sweet, dry, herbal aroma with nutty, tea-like undertones and a faint muskiness. It sits comfortably in the heart of a fragrance, rounding out lavender, bergamot, geranium, and sandalwood in diffuser and perfume blends.
How much clary sage oil should I use on my skin? ▾
Because it is highly concentrated, dilute clary sage oil to between 0.5% and 2% in a carrier oil like jojoba, sweet almond, or fractionated coconut oil before any skin application, and patch test on a small area first to check your skin's reaction.
What sizes of clary sage oil do you offer? ▾
We carry ten sizes of clary sage oil, starting at a 0.5 oz bottle for home use and scaling all the way up to 400 lb drums for wholesale buyers, formulators, and manufacturers who need consistent volume.
Does buying a larger size save money per ounce? ▾
Yes. Per-ounce cost falls steadily as size increases, and our largest 400 lb size works out to less than half the per-ounce price of the smallest 0.5 oz bottle, making bulk sizes the better value for frequent users.
Which size of clary sage oil should I start with? ▾
A 0.5 oz or 1 oz bottle is plenty for testing clary sage in a diffuser or a first perfume blend. Home users doing regular soap or candle batches often prefer 4 oz to 8 oz, while makers and resellers typically order 5 lbs and above.
How fast do you ship, and how do I check out? ▾
Orders typically ship within 1 to 2 business days. Bulk sizes of 5 lbs or more may need extra handling time before they leave our facility. Checkout for every size runs through our Shopify store, so payment and order tracking are handled securely.
What color and consistency does clary sage oil have? ▾
Clary sage oil is typically a pale yellow to light olive liquid with a light, slightly oily consistency similar to other steam-distilled essential oils. Slight variation in shade is normal from one distillation batch to the next and does not affect quality.
