Wintergreen oil is derived from the leaves of the wintergreen herb. This oil is known to emit a sweet, minty, and somewhat warming woody aroma. It helps to deodorize indoor environments and helps improve negative moods, mental pressure, feelings of stress, and concentration for a greater sense of emotional balance. Wintergreen oil also finds application in skin and hair. It is known to soothe dryness and irritation, rejuvenate the skin, eliminate odor-causing bacteria, and prevent hair loss.

Wintergreen oil is significantly used in various industrial applications as well as households for its functional properties. Its unique, refreshing flavor and fragrance renders it suitable for usage in home care products, food and beverages, perfumes, and personal care products. Wintergreen oil is incorporated as a flavoring agent in oral care products such as toothpaste and mouthwashes. In the food & beverages industries, it is used in candies, chocolates, and baked goods to spike them with a fresh, minty flavor. It is also added to a variety of culinary creations. Thus, the increasing consumption of baked goods and culinary products bolsters the demand for wintergreen oil in the food and beverages industry. Moreover, this oil is added to skincare and haircare formulations due to its ability to improve complexion, reduce dryness and scalp irritation, eliminate odor-causing bacteria, rejuvenate skin, and prevent hair loss. Its antioxidant properties also render it ideal in skincare and cosmetic product formulations. Wintergreen oil is employed as a natural home deodorizer that can help mask foul smells. It is also used in-home care products to sanitize the air owing to its antimicrobial and antibacterial properties.

Based on type, the wintergreen oil market is divided into organic and conventional. The conventional segment held a larger share of the market in 2023. Conventional wintergreen oil is extracted using raw materials obtained from plants that are grown with the use of chemical pesticides, synthetic growth hormones, and petroleum-based fertilizers. Conventional wintergreen oil is easily available in the market as compared to organic wintergreen oil, as there are many manufacturers in the market providing conventional wintergreen oil. Conventional wintergreen oil is cheaper than organic ones; however, using chemicals and fertilizers in conventional farming primarily affects the end product's health and nutrient levels. Further, the growing preference for organic variants in applications such as food, personal care, and cosmetics may affect the market for conventional wintergreen oil during the forecast period.
