Roos & Roos Mentha Religiosa is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2016, created by Fabrice Pellegrin. Mentha Religiosa opens with Bergamot and Petitgrain, settles into a heart of Mint, and dries down to a base of Iris, Heliotrope, Vanilla, and Incense. Roos & Roos's Mentha Religiosa carries a Statement verdict, a green-led wear.

This is a brilliantly divisive, peculiar scent. If you're after something genuinely unique and don't mind a 'grandma' vibe or a bit of a challenge, Mentha Religiosa delivers. It's a love-it-or-hate-it affair, but those who love it, really love it.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

Office Casual Formal

With long-lasting performance and moderate sillage, this scent has enough presence for various occasions without being overwhelming. Its unique, somewhat formal character makes it suitable for dates and more casual refined settings, while the 'churchy' incense and powdery notes elevate it beyond everyday wear, but not so much as to make it stuffy.

About

Mentha Religiosa opens with a blast of icy, herbal mint, brightened by tart bergamot and green petitgrain. This crisp, almost medicinal freshness quickly gives way to a powdery heart where delicate iris and creamy heliotrope emerge. As it dries, a warm, spiritual base of vanilla, amberwood, and a distinct churchy incense wraps around the mint and florals, creating a complex, slightly smoky, and comforting finish that lingers beautifully.
