The essential oil of an Italian wild type of sage classified as Salvia officinalis L. var. angustifolia Ten., was analyzed by GC/MS. Thirty-four components of the oil were identified, monoterpenes being the most abundant (about 70%). The oil, characterized by high content of α-thujone (39%) and considerable amounts of β-pinene, 1,8-cineole, β-caryophyllene and α-humulene showed a composition very similar to that of the commercially available Dalmatian sage oil confirming the ascribed sage classification.
