Peppermint Pure Essential Oil 10 ml — Steam-Distilled, Cooling Clarity

Bright menthol magic—reviving body and mind since ancient times.

Steam-distilled from the flowering herb Mentha piperita, peppermint essential oil is sharp, fresh, and bracing with its high menthol content. Revered since ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, peppermint has been used in remedies, rituals, and feasts for its ability to refresh, clear, and invigorate.

Aromatically, peppermint uplifts the senses, easing mental fatigue and supporting focus. It is often chosen in aromatherapy for clearing the head, stimulating alertness, and bringing cooling relief to tension. Topically in dilution, peppermint helps soothe inflamed, itchy, or sun-stressed skin, while its cooling sensation can ease muscular aches. Its antibacterial edge also lends itself well to oral blends, freshening breath and supporting gum health. When diffused or burnt, peppermint doubles as a natural insect repellent, keeping away mosquitoes and pests.
