WHAT YOU'VE BEEN SOLD

Friendliness became an asset.

Somewhere along the way, friendliness got monetised. It became a corporate asset, a trained smile, a scripted warmth, a have-a-great-day delivered at industrial scale by someone paid to say it and moving on to the next person before the sentence has landed. And after enough of that, real, unguarded, agenda-free friendliness starts to feel almost suspicious, like the opening move of something. A mint that is simply, genuinely pleased to see you has, in that climate, become the rarer product. This freshness, for the record, was not trained at an away day. It came like this.

This freshness was not trained at an away day. It came like this.

WHAT THIS ACTUALLY IS

Spearmint Essential Oil, steam distilled from the leaves of Mentha spicata from China. Sweet, soft and green, the friendly, familiar mint of childhood toothpaste and chewing gum, all the fresh green lift of peppermint but without the cold menthol slap. Where peppermint arrives with cheekbones and an agenda, spearmint just turns up, green and glad and easy, pleased to see you and asking for nothing in return. Freshness, with the guard down.

All the fresh green lift of peppermint. None of the cold slap.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS

Down in the Scent Sanctum, spearmint is what Sprig keeps in the Glad Green, for the ones so braced for a catch that genuine, unguarded friendliness now reads as an opening move.

  • Genuinely glad: Kept for the intention to have one bit of freshness that is simply, warmly pleased to see you, with nothing behind it.
  • No second move: For when unguarded friendliness makes you look for the agenda. The green wave hasn't got one. It's just glad you're here. Stand down.
  • Sweet green air: Sweet, soft, green minty air, cheerful and lively, freshness without the slap.
  • The glad-green hour: For the social green lift, the cheerful mint hour, the friendly room.

WHY YOU NEED IT

Unguarded, agenda-free, glad you're here.

Kept for the social green lift, the cheerful mint hour, the friendly room that wants freshness without the slap. A few drops when you'd like a room that feels simply, warmly glad, and when you're ready to stop scanning genuine friendliness for the catch, because this one hasn't got one.

The green wave has no second move. Stand down and smell it.

SAFETY NOTICE AROMA USE ONLY FILED THE SENSIBLE DESK

The sensible bit

For aroma use only with suitable diffuser or aromatherapy equipment. Spearmint is one of the gentler mints, but still use it in moderation and in a well-ventilated space. Do not ingest; do not add to food or drink; do not use in baths; do not apply to skin, even diluted or on broken skin; and do not use for massage or personal care. Avoid use during pregnancy and around children under 3. Avoid eyes and sensitive areas. Keep away from children, pets, heat, sparks and open flames. Store upright and tightly closed. Never leave heated equipment unattended. Seek professional guidance if breastfeeding, taking medication, managing a health condition, or using around vulnerable people. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.

GIFT · THE ONE BRACED FOR A CATCH

Has been sold to so often that genuine friendliness now reads as an opening move. Give them a freshness with nothing whatsoever behind it.

To the guarded one

No second move.

GIFT · THE GENTLE-MINT SORT

Loves a fresh green mint but finds peppermint's cold menthol slap a bit much. This is the soft, sweet, friendly one.

To the gentle-mint one

Fresh, no slap.

GIFT · THE GENUINELY WARM ONE

Is actually, unfashionably, glad to see people, with no agenda at all. Give them the mint that matches them.

To the glad one

Means it.

DO NOT GIVE TO

The person who can't receive plain friendliness without asking what you want from them. This mint wants nothing, which they will find deeply unsettling. Ease them into it.

Wants nothing. Unsettling, isn't it.

Friendliness became an asset.

PORTRAIT · SPRIG
IN THE GLAD GREEN
SPRIG

Sprig is simply glad you came. There is no second move.

Sprig is a pillywiggin, one of the tiny, merry meadow-fae who live among the green and the flowers and are glad, in a plain and total way, of absolutely everyone who passes. Sprig keeps the Glad Green of the Sanctum, and trusts spearmint because it is simply, warmly pleased to see you, with nothing at all behind it: sweet, soft, green and friendly, freshness with the guard down.

Sprig has watched the Surfacefolk train their friendliness into a corporate asset, scripted and scaled and delivered by people already looking past you to the next person, until the real thing started to read as suspicious, as the opening move of some pitch. Sprig finds this heartbreaking, in a small green way. Sprig has no pitch. Sprig has never had a pitch. Sprig is just glad you're here.

So Sprig keeps the glad green mint ready for the ones so braced for a catch that plain warmth alarms them, and offers it freely, no agenda, no follow-up, on the simple green principle that some welcomes really are just welcomes.

Merry, green, and genuinely glad of everyone; has never had a second move; offers the welcome free.

Two crates, genuinely glad

Spearmint keeps company. All of it pleased to see you.

BEFORE YOU GOA WORD FROM THE GLAD GREEN
About the catch you keep looking for:

You've been braced for so long.

That's the thing, isn't it. You've been pitched at, upsold and have-a-great-day'd for so long that genuine, unguarded friendliness now trips an alarm; it reads as the opening move of something, the warm hello before the ask. You scan it for the agenda. You wait for the second move. But some welcomes are just welcomes, and the exhausting part is how hard it's become to tell.

FIND THE AGENDA.WAIT FOR THE ASK.DON'T TRUST THE WARM.
Someone was kind to you this week and you spent the moment working out what they were after.

Stand down, just for a bit. Set the sweet green spearmint going and let the room be plainly, unguardedly glad, with nothing behind it and nothing to brace for. The green wave has no second move. Stand down and smell it.
