Absolutely pure !!
I bought this because of spiders in my bedroom after a huge spider ran across my pillow. I have a door that leads outside from my bedroom which I keep open for my dogs, so spiders and creepy crawlies are always finding their way in. Not only have I not seen another spider but my bedroom smells wonderful fresh peppermint.

I ordered this and the peppermint oil. Dab the oil on the back of both knees and around the opening of my tennis shoes near ankles and across the tongue of shoes. Amazingly I am no longer being eaten alive by gnats and mosquitos!!! Great for my almost daily trips to the dog park.
Cynthia Gron –
Takes quite a bit if the edge off my back pain, making it more than tolerable.
I will buy this again, I am sure.

I’m picky about peppermint scents (some are too sweet and/or artificial smelling) but this one is very fresh and clean. It pairs well with lavender for a soothing scent, and it works well in the diffuser at night for congestion. I got the smallest size to make sure I liked it, but plan to get the larger one now.
Suzann Adams –
Started using this undiluted on my face and on various cuts and scars and it really seems to be healing and evening my skin tone out. I wish I had GALLONS for my entire body! The smell won’t be for everyone but I’m used to it.
Ali Azmal –
This oil is very very strong. I usually put 3-4 drops of essential oils in my diffuser for my bedroom, yet this oil only requires 1 or 2 drops!
Ronia Morgan –
I am a migraine sufferer. This stuff is my go to. A 2 oz bottle lasted me a long time so now I We with the 4. I put this DIRECTLY on my forehead, temples and near my nose. It tingles in the best way and always helps with my headache.
Robyn L. –
I’m very particular about peppermint oil and I have spent too much money on brands that have an awful odor. I was very happy to find that the Now brand has a wonderful, clean, fresh peppermint smell without any impurities coming through.
Chery Smith –
This brand is one of the best brands out there in my opinion. I have compared it to several of the multilevel marketing oil’s that my friends are always trying to push on me. They were exactly the same.
I especially love the peppermint. The oil is minty of course, but it smells a little sweet as well and fresh. So I actually get lots of compliments on the smell. I combine peppermint and lavender in my diffuser And get compliments on the combination all the time. I use it in my office and I have co-workers who will just stop by my office when they are having a stressful day. Lol. They say my office is the most peaceful place in our building.
John Walter –
My wife turned me onto the benefits of essential oils. This is one of the best treatments for serious headaches I think I have ever run across. Within 15 – 20 minutes it can take a serious headache and get me back on my feet and feeling quite refreshed. I don’t claim to know how it all works, just that it does, and for that, it deserves 5 stars in my book.
Sheila W –
This peppermint oil is so much better than I expected
Kelly Guimbellot –
I love Now Peppermint EO, We use this anytime a sore throat or congestion hits. This year the pollen in my area was very high and NEO Peppermint came in handy. I also mix with lemon, clove and cinnamon leaf for severe leg cramps and it works great for me
Camay Campbell –
I love my peppermint, the scent is wonderful and the price was great!!
I am so happy I found a great price for this product because I rely on it a lot, I use my peppermint mostly for headaches and it is a natural wonder. I bought one for my sister and for myself and my sister was so happy when she received hers and loves it too.

This is 100% PURE peppermint. Meaning, if you rub it on your hands, or someone’s back right out of the bottle, there will be a reaction. This oil is meant to be mixed with other oils or dabbed onto fabric, etc. That said, start small; just a few drops at first, then test. You can search all the merits of peppermint oil and its many applications. I mix it with beeswax and a few other things as a foot treatment. It’s versatile in that is dissolves / emulsifies easily and doesn’t separate out.
I’ve also put it on a swatch of cloth, then placed in window bays. It is mainly for the scent but also I was told it would keep insects out of the window. So far so good.
A few drops in a light lavender massage oil, and I get a nice mixture of rich and sweet.
