Menthol is free-flowing or agglomerated, crystalline powder or prismatic or acicular, colourless, shiny crystals.Menthol is widely used in pharmaceuticals, confectionery, and toiletry products as a flavoring agent or odor enhancer. In addition to its characteristic peppermint flavor, l-menthol, which occurs naturally, also exerts a cooling or refreshing sensation that is exploited in many topical preparations. Unlike mannitol, which exerts a similar effect due to a negative heat of solution, l-menthol interacts directly with the body’s coldness receptors. d-Menthol has no cooling effect, while racemic menthol exerts an effect approximately half that of l-menthol.
