White Sage - used as a mood booster to help relax and even improve memory loss, white sage is often found in aromatherapy products, including candles, oils and more.  

Herbaceous like other sage aromas, white sage is also bright and cleansing, pairing well with other herbs like lemongrass, lavender and florals.

Clary Sage - Clary sage provides a sweeter musk-like scent.  Sometimes a bit intense on the nose, especially when not paired and balanced out properly. Clary sage also offers a tranquil, calming effect that is perfect for unwinding.
