Description

bot. Mentha x piperita L. sbsp. Citrata

The aphrodisiac lemon peppermint essential oil has a very pleasant, elegant and refined scent. Interestingly, neither menthol, menthone nor other "minty" compounds are produced by this hybrid mint. The essential oil is dominated by linalool (40%) and linalyl acetate (32%), similar to lavender, so lemon peppermint, also known as cologne mint, is a favourite of perfumers since ancient times.

It is probably no coincidence that different cultures have dedicated so many plants to Venus, the goddess of love, fertility, abundance and life, and the planet named after her. Mint is also influenced by this planet, although it has an antipathetic effect, since mint is hot and dry according to the qualitative paradigm of classical Greco-Arabic medicine, while Venus is the abode of the water element – cold and wet. While Venus' influence on the uterus accumulates dampness and cold, mint gently warms and dries this centre of feminine strength, beauty and fertility. They help to focus feminine energy. In this way, the woman feels the power of her roots. Mint helps her to be less dependent on other people's will, less reactive to different opinions and helps her to stop feeling like a victim. Mint helps to recover from serious illness, childbirth, debilitating work or prolonged stress.
