Red Mandarin

Red mandarin is a bright and juicy fragrance note with a sweet, tangy scent profile that carries subtle fruity and slightly floral undertones. Its aroma is fresh, vibrant, and uplifting, adding a sunny and cheerful quality to perfumes. Red mandarin imparts a lively, citrusy character and is often used as a top note to create an invigorating and sparkling opening in fragrance compositions. It pairs beautifully with floral, woody, and green notes, contributing to fragrances that are modern, refreshing, and full of vitality.

History & Production: Red mandarin, cultivated primarily in Mediterranean regions, is cherished for its aromatic zest and sweet juiciness. The essential oil is extracted through cold pressing of the fruit’s peel, preserving its bright and natural citrus aroma. In perfumery, red mandarin is valued for its ability to add a zesty, sweet depth that enhances the freshness and energy of fragrances, evoking a sense of warmth, joy, and Mediterranean landscapes.
