Austria 2024 Diana with Menthol Stamp




Issue date 18 September 2024

Austria Post to commemorate an Age old brand Diana with Menthol, issued a special stamp enhanced with a Menthol scented varnish commemorating the brand.

In 1897, a Hungarian pharmacist from the "Diana Pharmacy" discovered the versatile effects of Franzbranntwein rubbing alcohol infused with menthol. This product is registered in the Austrian trademark register in 1907 as DIANA with Menthol (under the pharmacy's name). DIANA with menthol brand was acquired by the Austrian company Unipack GmbH, owned by the Burghart family in 2014. 

DIANA with menthol is used as a rub for releasing muscle tension, providing an invigorating and cooling effect. Menthol is extracted from the leaves of the peppermint plant or other mint species. It is known for its cooling sensation and minty aroma.
