Aroma Chemistry

Spearmint essential oil contains a distinctive set of aromatic constituents:

• Carvone: the dominant compound, responsible for spearmint’s sweet, familiar mint aroma
• Limonene: adds a bright, citrusy lift
• 1,8-Cineole (trace): contributes a light, cool freshness

Thanks to its high carvone content and low menthol levels, Spearmint smells sweeter and softer than peppermint, ideal for fresh, gentle blends.
