Product Description
Explore our curated selection of high-quality Mint oils, ideal for both cosmetic and culinary applications. Known for their potent menthol content and uplifting aroma, these oils bring a cooling, refreshing sensation to a wide range of formulations.
A standout option in our range is Mentha Arvensis, renowned for its menthol content (approx. 25% L-menthol in typical GC analysis), delivering a sharp, invigorating scent and pronounced cooling effect. It’s a popular and cost-effective alternative to Mentha Piperita (Peppermint Oil) — widely used in skincare, oral care, balms, and aromatherapy.
Our Mint oils are a trusted choice for brands looking to add a crisp, menthol-infused note to their products.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Mentha arvensis and Mentha piperita peppermint oil?
Both are steam distilled mint oils. Mentha arvensis (cornmint, INCI: Mentha Arvensis Herb Oil) is naturally higher in menthol, giving a stronger, simpler cooling note at a lower cost; Mentha piperita is true peppermint, with a rounder, sweeter and more complex profile.
What does Mentha arvensis oil smell like?
Strong, cool and minty with a sweet, slightly herbaceous edge. Arvensis is naturally rich in menthol, so it gives a pronounced cooling feel in foot care, shower gels and oral-care flavours.
Can Mentha arvensis oil be used in food?
Yes. This grade is of Indian origin and conforms to EU Regulation 1334/2008 for food flavouring use (FEMA 4219). For cosmetic and home fragrance products, use the IFRA certificate to set the maximum level for each product category.
What pack sizes are available?
From 100 ml up to a 5 kg pack, all priced online. For larger regular volumes, ask us for a bulk quote.
