### Mint in Greek and Roman Gardens

The genus Mentha is considered native to the Mediterranean. Theophrastus mentions that mint was cultivated and used in crowns for its scent. Pliny the Elder described its cultivation in detail in his Natural History. He notes its use in cushions and at banquets.

### The Name and the Myth

The name minthe is traditionally viewed as Pre-Greek. Strabo tells a myth in which the nymph Minthe becomes the plant. Ancient minthe may have covered several Mentha species.

### Using and Storing Your Oil

Add a few drops of this mint essential oil to a bath or diluted base. For a bath, add 10 drops to water and soak for 10 to 20 minutes. For massage, dilute to 4 percent in 96 percent base oil. Mentha arvensis oil also suits a mint massage oil blend.

Keep out of reach of children. Avoid contact with the eyes. Dilute before applying to skin. Keep the cap tight and store the bottle upright, away from heat and direct sun.

Mint has scented garlands, cushions and banquets since antiquity. A mint massage oil blend continues that habit. Choose mint oil for bath for a gentle soak. Mentha arvensis oil also makes a tidy gift in its box.
