Sage, the panacea
Clary sage, which derives its name from the Latin salvare, “to save,” is renowned for its thousand virtues. This Mediterranean plant has been used since antiquity in sacred rituals as well as in cuisine, cosmetics and aromatherapy. Its mauve flowers and velvety leaves give off a powerful smell, both fresh and animalic, known to repel pests naturally. Indispensable to perfumers, the essence yielded by distilling the whole plant is used for its green, aromatic profile as much as for its tenacity. Discover all the talents of this discreet yet ubiquitous plant by journeying through botany, history, shamanism, agriculture and chemistry without overlooking, of course, perfume and perfumers.
