Umuthi Spearmint Pure Essential Oil

Description

Umuthi Spearmint Pure Essential Oil is a steam-distilled essential oil from the flowering tops and leaves of
Mentha spicata
. It has a fresh mint profile that is generally softer and sweeter than peppermint, making it useful in diffuser
blends, steam blends, massage oils, bath products, and natural fragrance formulations. Spearmint brings a clean,
uplifting aromatic note to products and pairs beautifully with basil, eucalyptus, jasmine, lavandin, lavender,
rosemary, and peppermint. It is a refreshing choice where minty brightness is wanted without the sharper intensity of
peppermint.

a little softer than peppermint, which makes it useful for diffuser blends, bath products, and fresh aromatic
formulations.
