Use: Eau-de-Cologne Mint releases a delightful scent when you brush pass. Plant near a footpath so you can't help but touch it. If perfumes only smelled like these natural perfumed plants many people wouldn't suffer from allergies they often encounter when strong, and in some cases mild perfumes, are sprayed or worn by other people. Some people get an immediate headache which can last hours when they smell a strong perfume or several perfumes mixed together.

Harvest: Harvest regularly
