Sage geranium, also known as sage scented, musk sage, musk sage, sage, sage, Athiopis sclarea or Sclarea vulgaris, is a valuable aromatic and medicinal plant. It is a biennial or short-lived herb that belongs to the deaf-headed family. It is native to the Mediterranean region, but today it grows almost all over the world. It is found in dry and sunny habitats, preferring permeable, calcareous and loamy soils.

Sage is primarily used for its highly aromatic leaves, which are used in culinary and cosmetic applications. In gastronomy, it is mainly used to flavour dishes such as soups, sauces and various types of meat. In cosmetics, the sage oil extracted from this plant is used for the production of perfumes, bath powders, soaps and other cosmetic products. The essential oil of clary sage is also used in aromatherapy. It is also a component of some liqueurs and wine spirits. However, despite its wide range of uses, products containing clary sage should be handled with care as it can cause allergic reactions in some cases.
