Menthol Crystals from 100% Mint Oil

Menthol Crystals – An Intense Fragrance Experience for Your Sauna

Our menthol crystals are derived from 100% pure and natural mint oil, prized for their high purity and intense, fresh aroma. Produced through the crystallisation of essential oils from various mint species (Mentha), they offer a wide range of applications – especially popular in saunas, but suitable for many other uses as well.

Thanks to their crystalline form, the menthol crystals are easy to measure and use flexibly – perfect for both professional and private settings.

Using Menthol Crystals in the Sauna

Menthol crystals provide a powerful, convenient alternative to traditional sauna water infusions. When exposed to heat, they dissolve quickly and distribute their strong aroma evenly throughout the sauna space. The fresh menthol scent delivers a noticeably invigorating effect when inhaled and enhances the sauna experience with a refreshing aromatic note.

Menthol crystals are especially popular in commercial saunas, spas, and wellness facilities, where they add an energising element to classic infusions. They can be combined with other sauna scents and are also ideal for mobile saunas or event-based setups thanks to their space-saving and efficient nature.

These menthol crystals can be applied directly to the sauna stones or used in infusion water. The ideal amount depends on the desired intensity. Just a small quantity is enough to produce a powerful menthol fragrance and a refreshing sauna atmosphere.

Usage on Sauna Stones

Place 1 to 4 crystals (depending on size) in a fireproof dish directly on the hot sauna stones. The crystals melt and release a soothing aroma – particularly suitable for those who prefer dry air in the sauna.

Usage as a Sauna Infusion

Add 1 to 3 menthol crystals directly to the infusion water and use the mixture as you normally would. The intensity can be adjusted as desired. For best results, dose carefully and adapt to personal preference.

Menthol Crystals for Aromatherapy & Room Fragrance

• Aroma bowls: Place a few crystals with a little water in bowls on radiators or tealight warmers (Caution: do not use with open flames).
• DIY scent blends: Menthol can be combined with essential oils, such as citrus oils (orange, lemon).
• Candle additive: Add a crystal to unscented wax for a fresh menthol scent.

Menthol in Cosmetics and Personal Care

Menthol provides a pleasant cooling sensation on the skin and has mild anti-itching and disinfectant properties. It is therefore widely used in cooling lotions, gels, massage creams, body scrubs, shampoos, conditioners, and after-sun products. Menthol is also commonly found in mouthwashes and toothpastes for its fresh taste and cooling effect.

Processing in Cosmetic Formulations

• Melting in oil: Menthol crystals can be melted into oils (e.g. jojoba oil) at 40–42°C and incorporated into the heated oil phase of balms or ointments.
• Dissolving in alcohol: For gels or aqueous solutions, dissolve the crystals in a 1:4 ratio (menthol to 90% alcohol) and then blend into the formulation.

Important: Use no more than 0.1–2% in final products to avoid skin irritation.
