Peppermint Essential Oil

Peppermint Essential Oil
Mentha piperita | Leaves & Flowers | Steam Distilled

Cool, sharp, and instantly recognisable, Peppermint Essential Oil is one of the most invigorating oils in aromatherapy. Steam distilled from the leaves and flowering tops of Mentha piperita, this oil boasts a bold menthol aroma that awakens the senses, supports mental clarity, and provides fast acting relief for physical tension.

With its high levels of monoterpenols (46.8%), ketones (29.05%), and oxides (6.25%), Peppermint is a powerful multitasker. It’s commonly used to help ease headaches, soothe tired or achy feet, and reduce digestive discomfort. Its clean, penetrating scent also makes it a favourite for enhancing focus, clearing the mind, and opening the breath.

Whether used in massage blends, DIY foot balms, or morning diffuser rituals, Peppermint delivers a fresh burst of clarity and cool comfort.
