Tangerine sits in that familiar citrus family, close to orange but with its own sweet, tangy softness. Because the aromatic oil is held in the peel, cold expression keeps the scent connected to the fresh fruit itself: lively, recognisable and easy to blend. It works well in simple everyday rituals, from scenting a quiet room before work to adding a clean citrus edge to a personal oil blend.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSize and details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolume:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical name:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eCitrus reticulata\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant part used:\u003c\/strong\u003e fruit peel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtraction method:\u003c\/strong\u003e cold expression\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSource:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brazil\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 110 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eA bright gift for scent lovers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose it for someone who enjoys citrus fragrance, simple home rituals or making their own aromatic blends.
