wikipedia: Pulegone is a naturally occurring organic compound obtained from the essential oils of a variety of plants such as Nepeta cataria (catnip), Mentha piperita, and pennyroyal. It is classified as a monoterpenoid, which means that it is an oxidized derivative of a terpene, a large class of naturally occurring C10 hydrocarbons.
Pulegone is a colorless oil with a pleasant odor similar to pennyroyal, peppermint, and camphor.  It is used in flavoring agents, in perfumery, and in aromatherapy.
