Sclareolide is a sesquiterpene lactone natural product derived from various plant sources including Salvia sclarea, Salvia yosgadensis,[1] and cigar tobacco.[2] It is a close analog of sclareol, a plant antifungal compound.[3]

It is used as a fragrance in cosmetics[4] and has been more recently marketed as a weight loss supplement, though there is no clinical evidence to support this effect.
