Rockville, Md. The global peppermint oil market is set to grow at a 3.9% CAGR through 2022, according to Fact.MR, carried by its long-standing role in herbal medicine and its widening use across oral care, flavouring and aromatherapy. Distilled from peppermint leaves and stems, the oil is valued for soothing muscle pain, headaches and colds, and for its cooling effect in mouth fresheners and toothpaste.
Europe holds the predominant revenue share, natural oil dominates the source mix, and absolute form is the most attractive product. Demand is also rising across Asia Pacific excluding Japan, particularly in India and China.
Sources, Forms and Applications
Natural peppermint oil keeps the upper hand over organic, set to hold about 66% of revenue with more than US$ 442 Mn in sales over the period.

Widening application across cosmetics, food and beverages, toiletries and therapeutics continues to broaden the market's base.
Europe stays the predominant region, helped by the popularity of essential oils and growing awareness of the health benefits of herbal products, while Asia Pacific excluding Japan posts a healthy uptick led by India and China.
