Essential Oils - Tangerine - A Refreshing and Rejuvenating Oil

Tangerine (Citrus riticulata) is in the citrus family of botanical plants. The Tangerine tree was originally native to China, but is now grown predominantly in the United States, Sicily and Italy. The tree is also very similar to the Mandarin grown in China. The tangerine tree produces a small fruit, orange in color with a taste somewhere between a mandarin and an orange. 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. 90 essential nutrients How Can We Use Tangerine Essential Oil for Our Health?
