Peppermint (Arvensis) Essential Oil
Peppermint oil's timeless scent is not only refreshing and stimulating, but packed full of benefits. A favourite among athletes, it can be used to boost energy and improve breath flow, and can help reduce exercise-related injuries by relaxing tight or strained muscles. It has also been found to relieve gastric distress, clear up cold symptoms, and soothe skin. This energising oil is also famous for its ability to repel spiders.
Peppermint arvensis is near identical in properties to its cousin peppermint piperita, the main difference being that arvensis contains a slightly higher concentration of menthol than is typically found in piperita. There is some variation in scent between the two but their properties are more or less identical.
Our 100% Pure Peppermint (Arvensis) Essential Oil has a sweet, refreshing scent with a recognisable minty quality. It is pale yellow in colour, and is extracted via steam distillation from the mentha arvensis herb, which is native to Europe and Asia.
