Eucalyptus globulus is the broad, camphorous one; peppermint is sharper and cooler because of its menthol. Both steam-distilled from leaves and supplied undiluted, so one or two drops is genuinely all a bowl of water needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat’s in this set\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOil\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBotanical name\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eExtraction\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePlant part\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePeppermint\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cem\u003eMentha piperita\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSteam distilled\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLeaves\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15 or 30 ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEucalyptus\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cem\u003eEucalyptus globulus\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSteam distilled\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLeaves\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15 or 30 ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy this pairing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePeppermint\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003e(Mentha piperita)\u003c\/em\u003e — Cooling, bright and unmistakable.
