Botanical
Name: Citrus reticulata
Plant Part: Peel
Extraction Method: Cold pressed
Origin: Italy
Description: The Tangerine tree
was originally native to China, but is now grown predominantly in
the United States and Sicily in Italy. The tree is also very similar
to the Mandarin.
Color: Yellow Orange
Common Uses: Tangerine essential
oil, like most of the citrus family, can be depended upon for
refreshing and rejuvenating characteristics. Its aroma clears the
mind and can help to eliminate emotional confusion. Aromatherapists
also consider it to be very comforting, soothing and warming. Users
may also see Tangerine used in perfumes, soaps, and as an
antispasmodic, carminative, digestive, diuretic, sedative, stimulant
(digestive and lymphatic), and tonic agent.
Consistency: Light
Note: Middle-Top
Aroma Strength: Medium
Blends well with: Tangerine
essential oil blends well with Basil, Bergamot, Cinnamon, Clary
sage, Clove, Frankincense, Lavender, Lemon, Lime, Neroli, and
Orange.
Aromatic Scent: Tangerine
essential oil has the typical citrus scent – fresh, radiant, and
tangy sweet. With only subtle differences, it smells a lot like the
Mandarin, with some even considering them identical. In comparison
to Sweet Orange, Tangerine can be seen as lighter with more
candy-like tones.
History: Tangerines were
originally brought to Europe and then the United States via China.
Cautions: Tangerine is similar
to other essential oils in the citrus family in that it can be
phototoxic. Care should be taken not to expose the skin to sunlight
after a treatment. Similarly, the oil should be diluted well before
use on the skin.
