A total of 100 g of fresh plant material (aerial parts) and 1 L of water was used for the extraction. Gas chromatography / Mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis was applied to extracts.</p><p><strong>Results:</strong> The essential oil yields of Salvia sclarea and Salvia verticillata L. subsp. verticillata were found as 0.4 and 0.3 %v/w, respectively. Overall, thirty-seven compounds which accounted for 97.9% in Salvia sclarea and seventy-four constituents, which accounted for 98.6% of the total compositions of each oil are determined in Salvia verticillata L. subsp. verticillata. The spathulenol (19%), caryophyllene oxide (15.5%), linolyl acetate (11.3%) and linalool L (8.5%) were the major compounds of Salvia sclarea and the germacrene D (13.8%), spathulenol (10%) and limonene (4.5%), 1.8- cineole (4.5%) were the main compounds of the Salvia verticillata L. subsp. Verticillata</p><p><strong>Conclusion:</strong>&nbsp;spathulenol was found as major compound for both&nbsp;<em>Salvia sclarea&nbsp;</em>and<em>&nbsp;Salvia verticillata</em>&nbsp;subsp.<em>&nbsp;verticillata&nbsp;</em>while,&nbsp;<em>&nbsp;</em>the other main components were not showed similarity</p> ER -
