Peppermint essential oil's aroma is fresh, piercing & minty. Reminiscent of candy canes at Christmas. Its odour effect is awakening, cooling and head-clearing. It's medicinal qualities have been known and cultivated for thousands of years. In fact there has been evidence of a type of peppermint found in Egyptian tombs from as far back as 1000bc. Today used in western medicine for indigestion, nausea, sore throat, colic, vomiting, headaches, toothaches and cramps.
