Dalmatian Sage Essential Oil: A Bold and Warming Botanical

Dalmatian Sage Essential Oil has a strong, herbaceous aroma and a long history of traditional use in natural wellness routines. Its powerful scent makes it a popular choice for diffuser blends during seasonal changes — particularly when you're craving something clarifying and comforting.*

When diluted properly (we recommend 0.4% in a carrier oil), Dalmatian Sage can also be used topically for a warming massage blend. Whether you're feeling tense after a tough workout or looking to create a comforting routine during your monthly cycle, this essential oil offers a grounded, supportive presence in your self-care lineup.*

Dalmatian Sage is also often included in belly massage blends for its invigorating aromatic qualities. Many users enjoy applying it (always diluted!) to the abdomen in a clockwise motion to encourage relaxation and comfort.*
