Clary Sage
Salvia sclarea
Soft, herbaceous and nutty. It deepens lavender at the base.
Clary sage is soft and warm, herbaceous with a nutty, almost tea-like depth. It is the quiet partner to lavender, rounding it out and holding it down.
The source
French fields
Clary sage takes its name from clarus, meaning clear, for its old use in bathing the eyes. Grown in the south of France, it is steam-distilled from the flowering tops: soft and nutty, the quiet partner that deepens lavender.
