Wintergreen Essential Oil 10ml

Wintergreen Essential Oil — 10ml

Wintergreen has been used by Native American peoples for centuries as a natural pain reliever and anti-inflammatory remedy, and its essential oil remains one of the most potent natural sources of methyl salicylate — the same active compound found in aspirin. Steam-distilled from the leaves of Gaultheria fragrantissima, it delivers a sweet, intensely minty aroma with a clean, slightly medicinal character that is immediately recognisable from its widespread use in sports rubs, muscle balms, and dental products.

Scent Profile

Top to middle note. Sweet, intensely minty, and clean with a familiar medicinal edge. Immediately recognisable — the classic scent of natural muscle relief and cooling therapy.

Blends Beautifully With

Peppermint, eucalyptus, lavender, and rosemary. A natural fit for sports and muscle relief formulations.

What You Can Make With It

• Muscle pain and sports injury relief balms
• Joint stiffness and arthritis massage oils
• Deep tissue warming and cooling blends
• Natural dental and oral care products
• Invigorating and clarifying diffuser blends

How to Use

Due to its very high methyl salicylate content, wintergreen must always be used in significant dilution and with great care. Not suitable for use during pregnancy, with children, or by those with aspirin sensitivity. Never take internally. Its warming, penetrating action makes it particularly effective for deep tissue relief.
