How to say 'mayonnaise' in Korean

Maybe 90% of Korean will say 마요네즈 for mayonnaise in Korean, however, some people will say it differently - 마요네스. According to Naver Korean dictionary the 마요네즈 is correct Korean word for 'mayonnaise.' The funny thing is that on the bottle of Korean mayonnaise from a well known food company 오뚜기, it says 마요네스, not 마요네즈. I guess when 오뚜기 first produced a Korean version of mayonnaise long time ago, the use of the word 마요네스 was more popular somehow and they(오뚜기) are still using that word 마요네스 on their product.
