Peppermint Essential Oil 10ml

Cool, green and sharply minty, this peppermint essential oil brings a clean menthol brightness to aroma rituals, diffuser blends and home fragrance. It has the brisk character people often reach for when a room needs to feel clearer, fresher and more awake.

The scent of crushed mint leaves

• The first impression is crisp and cooling, with that unmistakable peppermint lift.
• Its menthol character feels clean and direct, more herbal than sweet.
• Use it when you want a bright scent for a study space, bathroom or kitchen corner.
• It blends naturally with citrus, rosemary, eucalyptus and other fresh herbal oils.
• A little usually goes a long way, so start sparingly and build the scent slowly.

Mentha piperita, steam distilled

This oil comes from Mentha piperita, using the flowering herb of the plant. Steam distillation draws out peppermint’s volatile aromatic compounds, giving the oil its brisk, cooling scent without adding a heavy or resinous character.

How to use it safely

Add a small amount to an oil burner or diffuser, following the instructions for your device. For use in massage or body oil, dilute properly in a carrier oil first and patch test before wider use.

Keep essential oils away from eyes, children and pets. Avoid use during pregnancy, with young children, or around animals without guidance from a qualified professional.

Peppermint in tradition

Peppermint has been valued for centuries as a strongly aromatic herb, with references to mint appearing in Greek and Roman writing and mythology. The name Mentha is linked to the Greek figure Minthe, while mint itself was associated with hospitality, feasting and freshness in the classical world. Today, peppermint oil is mostly loved for its clear, instantly recognisable scent, used in aromatherapy, perfumery and simple home fragrance rituals.
