| Odor Description: | Fresh, fruity-bergamot, sweet, herbaceous, clary sage Arctander describes it like this: “Mentha citrata oil is a pale yellow or pale olive colored to almost water-white liquid of a sweet-herbaceous, somewhat fruity-fresh odor type; it resembles bergamot, but is distinctly more harsh in its terpenic topnotes, less rich in body, and without the oily-sweet, candy-like undertone of good bergamot oils. On the other hand, mentha citrata, oil presents a certain bergamot note without the citrus notes. This makes the oil more interesting in the lavender-fougere field. Its dryout has some resemblance to sage clary, but lacks the richness of that oil.” |

Odor: characteristic Use: Adam Michael has this to say “Bergamot mint has a somewhat confusing taxonomy and morphology resulting in varying opinion regarding the botanical name. Personally I refer to this material by botanical name as Mentha citrata Ehrh. However as this material is a cultivar of M.aquatica some are of the opinion the correct botanical name is Mentha aquatic L. var. citrata (Ehrh). |
