(+)-pulegone reductase (EC 1.3.1.81) is an enzyme with systematic name (-)-menthone:NADP⁺ oxidoreductase. This enzyme catalises the following chemical reaction

(1) (-)-menthone + NADP⁺ ⇌ (+)-pulegone + NADPH + H⁺(2) (+)-isomenthone + NADP⁺ ⇌ (+)-pulegone + NADPH + H⁺

NADH cannot replace NADPH as reductant.
