Fragrance Menthol Crystals

Essential Menthol crystals are refreshing, bold crystals with a fresh, pungent, slightly sweet, minty scent.
Menthol crystals are a lot more refreshing and stronger than Mint oil and Peppermint oil because this is the pure ingredient menthol that is extracted from these oils.
These crystals are recovered by freezing the (Pepper)mint oil.
You will even get cold in the sauna if you put a few menthol crystals in ice balls or in water on the sauna heater.

Extraction

Menthol is a natural extract of the 'Mentha Arvensis' plant. This is a perennial that belongs to the Lip Flower family (Labiatae or Lamiaceae). It is a plant of moist to wet, nutrient-rich soil: it can be found on arable land, on waterfronts, in swampy grasslands, along fens and in deciduous forests. The plant is native to India, China and Japan.
To recover menthol crystals, mint oil is centrifuged and when it is cooled at the top, the menthol crystallizes from the oil. Et voilà: menthol crystals have arisen from the oil! Menthol Crystals have a greasy layer because they are distilled from the Peppermint or Mint oil. As a result, the menthol crystals are also soluble in pure alcohol and Eucalyptus oil.
