Renowned for its sharp, cool, and invigorating menthol aroma, it contains high levels of menthol and menthone, which contribute to its cooling, analgesic, and antimicrobial effects. Peppermint Oil is widely used across aromatherapy, pharmaceuticals, personal care, food flavoring, and cleaning products.
