Clary Sage Absolute is a highly expressive natural extract derived from Salvia sclarea, valued in fine fragrance for its herbal, floral, warm, and softly musky olfactive character. Compared to clary sage essential oil, the absolute is deeper, smoother, and more rounded, with reduced sharpness and enhanced complexity.
Its aroma opens with aromatic herbal and tea-like facets, followed by soft floral tones reminiscent of hay, tobacco, and subtle amber warmth. Gentle musky and balsamic nuances emerge as it develops, giving the material an enveloping and sensual quality. This makes Clary Sage Absolute particularly effective in heart to base structures, where it adds texture, natural richness, and cohesion.
In perfumery, Clary Sage Absolute is widely used in fougère, aromatic, woody, amber, and modern unisex compositions. It blends beautifully with lavender, citrus, woods, resins, musks, and soft florals, enhancing both freshness and depth.
Prized for its fixative properties and natural elegance, Clary Sage Absolute is an essential ingredient for creating sophisticated, long-lasting, and character-driven fragrance compositions.
