Rolling a Mint Branch on Shabbos

Can someone roll a mint branch or leaf on the table or in his hand or smash it in order to get a better aroma on shabbos?

Answer:

There is no problem in rolling a mint branch or leaf in order to extract its scent. This is not considered molid re’ach, “creating” a scent, because the scent is already present within the leaf.
