Tangerine USA (Citrus reticulata var. tangerine)
The tangerine tree, Citrus Reticulata, grows in California, Florida and Texas and is actually the American variety of the East Asian Mandarin.
Some say Tangerine and Mandarin may be used interchangeably, but others find their scents very different, saying that Mandarin seems a bit tarter, closer to a blend of orange and grapefruit. Tangerine Oil is pressed from the peel of the ripe fruit.
Tangerine is a delightful alternative to Orange Oil, a bit lighter and much sweeter when used in a blend.
In France it is regarded as a safe children’s remedy for minor stomach ailments.
The wonderful light and sweet citrus scent of Tangerine oil works wonders during gloomy periods. It is uplifting like the other citrus oils and is also great at strengthening as well as calming the nervous system, which makes it helpful for stressful, nervous states.
It may be helpful for muscle cramps and cellulite.
