It blends well with the essential oils of hyssop, lavender, rosewood, lemon, ravensara, rosemary, and citrus oils.

Uses

Thanks to its fixative properties, the essential oil obtained from Salvia officinalis is used as a fragrance component in detergents, shampoos, soaps, and perfumes (men's fragrances). It is also a sought-after starting material for obtaining natural antioxidants.
