(−)-Isopiperitenone reductase () is an enzyme with systematic name (+)-cis-isopulegone:NADP+ oxidoreductase that is found in peppermint. It catalyses the following chemical reaction:

The three substrates of this enzyme are (-)-isopiperitenone, reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), and a proton. It converts them to (+)-cis-isopulegone and oxidised NADP+.
