Peppermint oil

Peppermint Essential Oil is a natural aromatic oil obtained from Mentha piperita L., a cultivated mint species valued for its distinctive fresh character.
The oil is commonly produced by steam distillation of peppermint leaves and aerial plant material.
Its characteristic aroma is dominated by a fresh, penetrating mint profile with a pronounced cooling sensory character.
Menthol and menthone are the principal constituents commonly associated with the chemical profile of peppermint essential oil.
Other important constituents can include menthyl acetate, menthofuran, 1,8-cineole, isomenthone and limonene.
Natural composition can vary according to cultivar, growing conditions, harvesting stage, plant material and distillation conditions.
Peppermint Essential Oil is widely used as an aromatic ingredient in perfumery, personal care, soaps, oral-care products and selected fragrance applications.
Its strong mint character can provide freshness and aromatic lift to fragrance compositions and can also contribute a distinctive herbal-mint profile.
The oil is particularly useful where a recognizable natural peppermint character is required in formulation development or fragrance blending.
SenseMe India supplies Peppermint Essential Oil for formulation development, fragrance applications and bulk botanical ingredient requirements.
