Carvone: 62.28%

Botanical Name: Mentha spicata

Plant Part: Leaves

Extraction Method: Steam Distilled

Origin: China

Description: Spearmint is a native of the Mediterranean area. A hardy perennial herb, Spearmint reaches about 1 meter (3 feet) in height. It has characteristic lance-shaped leaves with pink or lilac-colored flowers.

Color: Colorless to pale yellow clear liquid.

Common Uses: Aromatherapists claim the therapeutic properties of Spearmint Essential Oil are: as a local/topical anesthetic, antispasmodic, astringent, carminative, decongestant, digestive, diuretic, expectorant, stimulant and restorative. It is also believed to be an uplifting oil, great for alleviating fatigue and depression.

Consistency: Thin

Note: Top

Strength of Aroma: Medium

Blends well with: Basil, Birch Sweet, Bergamot, Eucalyptus, Jasmine, Lavender and Rosemary.

Aromatic Scent: Spearmint Essential Oil has a fresh minty smell reminiscent of Peppermint. The major difference is that Spearmint oil is sweeter, and not quite as harsh.

History: The ancient Greeks used Spearmint to scent their bath water. It also had a reputation for curing sexually transmitted diseases like gonorrhea, and for whitening teeth and healing sore gums. This might be credited to its ability to mimic a local anesthetic.

Cautions: Spearmint Essential Oil may irritate mucous membranes. Avoid use during pregnancy.

I love spearmint, and to have it in an oil, wow, how great is that!!! I use it along with rosemary and it draws out the scent even better. I put it in a wax tart. Lasts a long time and then I just add more spearmint and rosemary. And even using it alone, makes the room smell so fresh. I love, love, love it!!

Ordered a 15ml size to try it out. Love it. Made up Spearmint soap on a rope with loofah inside. They are amazing! Will be ordering a larger bottle very soon.

Milder than pepermint. I just love the scent. Can be refreshing for a feet cream. Odeur plus douce que la menthe poivrée. Je crois l'incorporer dans une crème rafraîchissante pour les pieds.
