About this material

Menthe Arvensis DMO, derived from the plant Mentha Arvensis that is native to India, also known as wild mint, field mint, or corn mint.

Cornmint stands out as the mint species with the highest concentration of menthol among the five genuine varieties and it is the Cornmint variation that is on offer here, containing a 50% menthol content.

These indigenous species readily interbreed in close proximity. Originating from North America, Cornmint has seen its primary production surpassed by India.

The essential oil extracted through steam distillation of its flower clusters finds application in both medicine and perfumery, prized for its delightful, zesty, and invigorating fragrance.

It has a powerful fresh and sweet peppermint aroma.

Mentha arvensis is a perennial herb adorned with delicate hairs. Its square stems support oval leaves with serrated margins, while clusters of small lilac blossoms adorn the apex of its stems.

This indigenous plant thrives in meadows and on the fringes of wetlands across India, it is cultivated on small-scale plots not exceeding one hectare.

Harvesting involves manual techniques using sickles, followed by air drying before conveyance to distilleries for steam distillation.

Subsequent dementholation occurs through freezing due to the high menthol content, causing it to crystallize at room temperature.

The high menthol content in the plant causes it to precipitate at room temperature.

Mentha arvensis, similar to peppermint, undergoes a cooling process that results in the crystallization of menthol, aiding in the clarification of the essential oil.

Even after this procedure, the mint essential oil maintains 50% of the molecule, thus preserving its refreshing minty quality.

It is often added to balms, creams and lotions for a cooling effect and used in aromatherapy for its refreshing, clearing scent.

It is common in chest rubs, inhalants, liniments and flavouring in toothpaste and mouthwash.

Caution must be taken when using this material; as even at 50%, it can irritate skin or mucous membranes if used undiluted.

IFRA formulation guide

Generic reference only — not an IFRA certificate, compliance decision or use recommendation. The Responsible Person and qualified safety assessor must assess the actual finished formula using current applicable IFRA Standards, supplementary documentation where available and the CPSR.

Source: 51st Amendment overview, held source checked 2026-10-21. Bundle 2026-10-27. Individual Standards prevail over the overview.

No direct IFRA overview entry matched the recorded CAS in this held dataset. This does not mean unrestricted use, absence of relevant Standards or compliance. Constituent restrictions may still apply.

Typical natural-material contribution references (2)

These IFRA typical composition references are not supplier or batch declarations. Botanical source, extraction and grade must be checked before applying constituent restrictions. No composition is assumed or calculated for this product.

Creative ideas to explore

Creative directions, not tested formulas.

An aromatic opening

With bergamot and a peel accord

Explore a citrus-and-herb opening that keeps the herbal character distinct. Compare a brighter peel variation with a gentler citrus reference, noting whether the imagined result feels like a garden cologne or a more culinary aromatic study.

Herb among petals

With geranium and a floral accord

Place the herbal material beside a familiar flower, using the flower alone as your reference. Compare the green and floral impressions through the evaluation and decide whether the herb should read clearly or remain an accent.

Dry aromatic woods

With cedar-like and sandalwood directions

Build a simple herbal wood sketch and compare a dry wood option with a smoother one. Keep the aromatic material constant so the study reveals which setting gives your idea the clearest shape and most useful contrast.
