Peppermint
Greek lore states that a nymph named Minthe was reincarnated as the fragrant mint plant so she would always be remembered.
It is used to add flavor or fragrance to foods, cosmetics, soaps, toothpastes, mouthwashes, and other products, and it may have some medicinal uses.
Peppermint (Mentha piperita) leaves can be used dried or fresh in teas.
Originally from Europe, peppermint today is cultivated all over the world.
