Peppermint Japanese Essential Oil



essentialoilBotanical Name: Mentha arvensis
Plant Part: Flowering herb
Extraction Method: Steam
Origin: India
Description: There are several species of the mentha arvensis perennial herb that can grow to 3 feet in height, spreading due to their underground 'runners'. Peppermint has hairy leaves with serrated edges and purple spiked flowers. Peppermint Japanese is known for its high menthol content. It is so high in fact, that menthol crystals sometimes form right on the leaves.
Color: Colorless to pale yellow liquid.
Common Uses: Peppermint Japanese essential oil has long been credited as being useful in combating stomach ailments. It is also viewed as an antispasmodic and antimicrobial agent. Of course, most people will associate it with being a flavoring or scenting agent in foods, beverages, skin and hair care products (where it has a cooling effect by constricting capillaries and helping with bruises and sore joints), as well as soaps and candles. This is largely due to its menthol content – typically 85%.
Consistency: Thin
Note: Top
Strength of Aroma: Medium to strong
Blends well with: Peppermint Japanese blends well with basil, bergamot, cajeput, cedarwood, eucalyptus, lemon, lime, mandarin, marjoram, niaouli, pine, rosemary, spearmint and thyme.
Aromatic Scent: Peppermint Japanese has a sharp, penetrating mint scent based on its high menthol content. The sweetness of the vapor makes it easy to see why it is such a common flavoring and scenting agent.
History: Peppermint and its name has its roots in Greek mythology. Pluto - god of the dead - fell in love with Minthe, a beautiful nymph. Pluto's goddess wife Persephone became jealous and turned Minthe into a plant. Pluto could not bring her back to life but ensured that she would have a wonderful and fragrant aroma.
Cautions: Peppermint Japanese can be sensitizing due to the menthol content.

I love this scent. Just as a peppermint oil should smell. It's bold but pleasant. This works great in CP Soap! It's also great in a sugar scrub!

Yumm after I smelled it, it seemed to get on my tounge, just from the scent, it tastes and smells like candy. My husband will be pleased, he cannot do without his peppermint soap.

So I was wrong...this wasn't just popular during the Christmas season...it's popular all year 'round!!!! This is by far, my second best-selling soap (Chanel No. 5 FO is my hands-down best seller, so make sure you pick that up too), and it really does smell sweeter than the typical medicinal peppermint you're used to. You really don't need to use a lot of this, as a little really goes a long way...and the scent only becomes stronger as the bars cure.

I was surprized at the intensity of this oil. It smells medicinal to me. I think it is a good value because a tiny drop goes a long way. I would use it for the medicinal value not the aroma.

After being so used to Peppermint Supreme from NDA, I decided to try this scent---and I'm glad I did...it's a bit of a more well-rounded peppermint scent with some depth and complexity. I'm going to stick with this one for a while!

I'm a little torn on this one. I love peppermint, it's so refreshing. But this one has some other scent in there, like a musty undertone. I don't know if all natural peppermint has this, I've only worked with the fragrance before. Maybe the other ones are cleaner and that's why they cost ten times as much. If so I'll gladly deal with the mustiness and take the savings. This does its job, though. It's very uplifting. Blends wonderfully with lavener and tingles in hair care.

Whoo, strong peppermint scent! Definitely an oil to be used in moderation, but this should be great for colds and clearing sinuses. Also nice for uplifting, mentally stimulating blends.

One of the most under-rated among the peppermint snobs. I say forget those 3rd distillation peppermints, this one produces sharp notes of bliss with... heaven forbid... some herbal notes. Anyone who has smelled real peppermint will appreciate this low cost peppermint that delivers plenty for less than half the cost. Try blending it with ground peppermint leaves and bath salts for a super cooling bath soak... INTENSE!

Such a yummy sweet smell! I initially bought this to ward off mice but I smells so good I decided to use it in my body creams as well. The peppermint oil makes the cream more refreshing when applied to my skin. And best of all, it price is just right.

I have been using this product for the ast year. I initially bought it to deal with a mice problem in a new home i purchased. The initial results were outstanding. I than started using it in lotions and soaps. This product is very cost effective when you are on a budget and provides the same aroma as the supreme. Thanks

I LOVE this oil! It is so fresh and invigorating! Blended with ginger EO, it is great for headaches, nausea, fatigue, motion sickness, and more.
