Level Wraith Mint

Latin libella, small-balance / level-tool — sharing root with libra (balance). As a color modifier, level implies a clear-and-horizontal-true quality where the hue carries the visual register of gravity-perpendicular-and-perfectly-horizontal surface. Sits at the crisp-and-balanced end of the grid, parallel to plumb and flat in usage.

Scots wraith, ghost-or-apparition. As a color modifier, wraith implies a ghostly-and-pale-and-apparitional quality, the visual register of Highland-Scots-and-Border-Ballad-wraith hand-ghostly-and-pale-and-apparitional Highland-Scots-and-Border-Ballad-and-Hebridean wraith-and-ghostly-and-pale surfaces under Highland-Scots-and-Border-Ballad-and-Hebridean moonlit-and-mist-shrouded-and-pale graveyard-and-tarn-light. Sits at the modifier-and-mood end of the grid, parallel to pall and gloam in usage.

The genus Mentha — peppermint, spearmint, apple mint, water mint — the cooling herb whose menthol gives it that quality at the molecular level. The color refers to fresh peppermint leaves before drying: a clean, slightly cool green with the matte finish of trichome-rich leaf surface. Lighter than basil, cooler than parsley, with the mojito-and-Pimm's association of a herb tied to summer drinks across two continents.
