Mandarin Leaves
Mandarin leaves bring a fresh, green, and subtly citrusy note to perfumes, evoking the essence of the Mediterranean and adding a vibrant, natural quality to compositions. Their scent profile is crisp and herbaceous, with a slightly tangy undertone that complements citrus and floral fragrances. Often used as a top or middle note, mandarin leaves lend a lively and uplifting touch, enhancing the brightness and complexity of perfumes and pairing beautifully with citrus, florals, and light woods.
History & Production: Mandarin trees, originally native to Southeast Asia, are now cultivated in many warm climates, particularly around the Mediterranean. The leaves, along with the fruit, have been valued for their aromatic properties for centuries. The essential oil or extract from mandarin leaves is typically obtained through steam distillation, capturing the fresh, green scent that distinguishes this note. Mandarin leaf essence is cherished for its ability to add a natural and bright element to perfumes, enhancing their freshness and depth.
