Green Tangerine
Mandarin is a gentle, sweet citrus note with juicy peel, a lightly floral quality and a small bitter-green accent. It feels rounded and easygoing beside sharper lemon.

It softens fresh openings and lends a playful fruitiness to flowers, musks and spices. In a gourmand setting, it can suggest candied peel rather than heavy sweetness.
The note’s placement and prominence depend on the complete composition.
Understanding this note
Mandarin peel yields natural essential oils. Ripeness, origin and processing influence the material, while a perfume can also recreate or amplify the familiar citrus effect.
