Ingredient Overview
Lemon balm is a mint-family herb recognised for its lemon-like leaf aroma. It is used in herbal infusions and traditional preparations, and its leaves provide phenolic compounds for extraction.
The fresh leaf’s citrus-like scent explains its appeal in herbal infusions. A concentrated leaf extract also brings attention to non-volatile phenolic constituents, including rosmarinic acid. This gives lemon balm a composition that extends beyond aroma and connects a familiar garden herb with botanical ingredient development.
