Wintergreen Essential Oil

There are some essential oils that just have a presence, and Wintergreen is one of them. Bold, clean, and unmistakably fresh, it has been a trusted ingredient in cosmetic and wellness formulations for decades. At CosmetiHub, we bring you pure Wintergreen Essential Oil sourced with care, offered at honest prices, and backed by over five years of serving Pakistani formulators and small businesses.

What is Wintergreen Essential Oil?

Wintergreen Essential Oil is steam-distilled from the leaves of Gaultheria procumbens, a low-growing plant native to North America and parts of Asia. Its most notable naturally occurring component is methyl salicylate, which gives it that sharp, cooling, minty character it is widely recognised for. In the cosmetic raw materials world, it is a well-established ingredient valued for its distinct scent and its broad range of formulation applications.

Scent Profile

Top note. The scent is intensely minty, sharp, and medicinal with a cool, slightly sweet undertone. It is a strong, recognisable aroma that performs well even at low inclusion levels in a blend. If you have ever smelled a classic muscle rub or a cooling sports product, you already know this oil.
