Spearmint Essential Oil – Sweet Mint Freshness for Beauty, Breath & Balance
Spearmint Essential Oil by Bio Shop™ is steam-distilled from the fresh leaves of the Mentha spicata plant. Unlike peppermint, Spearmint has a gentler, sweeter, and smoother mint profile thanks to its lower menthol content and higher carvone content — making it suitable for skincare, oral care, perfumery, and aromatherapy.
It is refreshing without being overpowering and is widely used in herbal perfumes, toothpaste, muscle rubs, hair tonics, and digestive blends. As a top note, Spearmint brings a sweet herbal brightness to citrus, floral, or green accords.
