Moroccan Pennyroyal Mint Concrete Super

Original designation: Menthe Maroc CTE pouliot Super

Mentha pulegium L.

Pennyroyal is mint with wilderness intact—pungent, camphoraceous, earthy and dry rather than confectionery. Its concrete or absolute form gives green structures a striking antique-herbal authority.

Extraction & expression

A concrete is the wax-rich first capture of aromatic biomass by solvent extraction. It retains fragrant molecules alongside natural waxes and pigments, creating a tactile, often plush material with unusual body.
