Perennail herb, up to 80cm tall, native to Central and South Europe, Western Asia.

From the essential oil of Calamintha sylvatica Bromf. subsp. sylvatica, thirty-three constituents were identified. Main component was cis-piperitone oxide (66-74%), minor ones cis-sabinene hydrate , limonene, and β-caryophyllene.

„Essential oil yield and composition of wild and cultivated Calamintha sylvatica Bromf. ssp. ascendens (Jordan) P.W. Ball (Lamiaceae) were studied using GC and GC/MS. Essential oil yields were very similar in both conditions, although plant growth was greater in the cultivated plants. Isomenthone (36.8–43.3%) proved to be the main component of oil in both cases.“

„The composition of the essential oil obtained from the dried flowering aerial parts of Calamintha officinalis Moench (Lamiaceae) was analyzed by GC and GC-MS. Thirty-four components have been identified in the oil of C. officinalis. The major constituents of this oil were β-bisabolene (9.9%), germacrene D (7.6%), β-bourbonene (7.4%) and piperitenone (5.3%).“
