My pony stopped to eat wild mint and the smell filled the air.

With wild mint extract, it also keeps breath fresh.

While the 11 rooms are comfortable enough, it's the gardens — fragranced with wild mint and jasmine — that are the real joy.

Scents include hyacinth, rose, rosemary and, more oddly, meadow, vine tomato and wild mint.

Chemical substances that can be extracted from wild mint include menthol, menthone, isomenthone, neomenthol, limonene, methyl acetate, piperitone, beta-caryophyllene, alpha-pinene, beta-pinene, tannins and flavonoids.
