Rating: I love the spearmint EO! I'm a peppermint lover, but the spearmint has a sweeter and softer smell. It is definitely a favorite of mine. Love it in my cp soaps, especially mixed with something citrusy! Has a great price too!
Rating: I prefer spearmint over peppermint, it's sweeter and softer. Unfortunately it makes people think of "Wrigley's" bubblegum. Not a bestseller in my melt & pour soaps, but sells reasonably well. Might benefit from being mixed with other EOs, which I haven't tried yet.

Rating: I absolutely love this spearmint oil! Behaves well in CP soaps and the smell stays strong a very long time after cure.
It is much sweeter smelling then peppermint, but blends with it beautifully. Personally I find this spearmint even more enticing than peppermint supreme (though I love both).
Rating: I use this one in my mouthwash recipe and does a great job.

Rating: This product is absolutely lovely. Often. People don’t quite know the scent difference between spearmint and peppermint so the main difference is that spearmint is lighter, fruitier, sweeter, and more floral. This eo is one of my favourites from ND the quality is fantastic, it soaps well, not as strong staying power as peppermint but wonderful in a body lotion mixed with any floral scent.

Rating: I bought this oil because I prefer the spearmint scent to the peppermint scent. It's just my personal taste. I feel that the spearmint has a cooler, more refreshing scent. After using peppermint and this spearmint in my M&P soaps I can compare them both. I found that I prefer the initial smell of the spearmint soap but the soap loses its scent very quickly. I also need to use much more spearmint oil than peppermint oil to get the same level of scent . I am going to try mixing the peppermint with the spearmint and hopefully the spearmint will be the initial wonderful scent but the peppermint will remain strong when the spearmint gives out. There is nothing wrong with the quality of the oil. That's just my experience with working with it. I'll see if it acts differently with lotions, creams etc.

Rating: Love Love Love this EO! It is perfect for children's cold/flu preparations as it is milder than peppermint but still effective! The smell is gorgeous, crisp and minty - exactly like spearmint gum.

Rating: I LOVE this spearmint essential oil. The scent is exactly how spearmint should be. Perfect to use in aromatherapy blends, air fresheners etc. I used it along with other essential oils to make an anti-nausea aromatherapy scent for my daughter who gets motion sickness in the car. It's a very versatile essential oil.
