In literary usage, spearmint is employed not merely as an herb but as a distinctive hue that evokes freshness and subtle warmth. Authors use its cool, pale-green tone to evoke the quiet rejuvenation of nature—as when spearmint is mentioned alongside earthy, natural tones like orange jelly and sea mud to create a sensory mosaic of the natural world [1]. In other texts, spearmint becomes a metaphor for gentle, restorative feelings, imbuing scenes with a sense of calm and tender sentiment [2][3]. This interplay between color and emotion helps writers evoke both the vivid imagery of nature and the understated quality of reminiscence.
