Mandarin essential oil is pressed from the fresh peels of Citrus reticulata, capturing a sweet, mellow, and juicy citrus scent with a soft floral whisper beneath it. Rounder than orange and gentler than lemon, it brings an easy, cheerful brightness to any diffuser blend.
Gentle citrus softness sets mandarin apart from sharper citrus oils, its sweet, mellow, and juicy character carrying a faint floral hum that blends beautifully with lavender, chamomile, and vanilla.
Bottled pure and undiluted every bottle is 100% pure mandarin oil with no additives, backed by our published Certificate of Analysis for full transparency.
Ten sizes available from a 0.5 oz bottle for first-time users up to 400 lbs for formulators and bulk buyers, all pressed to the same standard.

Bulk Orders Welcome
We're glad to fill bulk orders for mandarin oil at any size on our list, since every bottle from the smallest 0.5 oz to the full 400 lbs drum is pressed to the same standard. Formulators, makers, and resellers are always welcome here.
Pair mandarin's sweet, mellow, and juicy scent with lavender or chamomile for a gentle diffuser blend that suits kids' rooms and shared family spaces alike.
Mandarin's soft citrus character makes it a natural fit for homemade sugar scrubs and bath oils, whisked into a carrier at sensible, skin-friendly dilutions.
Mandarin's gentle, mellow profile makes it a favorite for family spaces and seasonal scenting, especially blended alongside vanilla for a cozy, cheerful atmosphere.
Mandarin oil is a concentrated botanical extract, not a finished skincare product. Dilute to 0.5% to 2% in a carrier oil before applying to skin, and always patch test first. Keep away from eyes, children, and pets, and never take internally. Store the bottle tightly capped in a cool, dark place.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Mandarin Essential Oil pure and undiluted? ▾
Yes. Every bottle is bottled 100% pure mandarin oil, cold-pressed from Citrus reticulata peels with nothing added and nothing taken away. We publish our results openly so you can review them yourself: see our Certificate of Analysis before you buy or reorder.
Is mandarin oil the same as tangerine or orange oil? ▾
No. Mandarin is pressed specifically from Citrus reticulata peels, which gives it a softer, sweeter, more floral-tinged scent than sharper true orange oil or the brighter, tangier profile typical of tangerine. Mandarin is the gentlest of the common citrus oils, without lemon's sharp, zesty edge.
What does mandarin oil smell like? ▾
Mandarin is sweet, mellow, and juicy, with a faint floral hum underneath its citrus brightness and none of lemon's sharp bite. It layers especially well with lavender, chamomile, frankincense, and vanilla, rounding out both cozy evening blends and bright, cheerful ones.
How much mandarin oil should I use on skin? ▾
For skin applications, dilute mandarin oil to between 0.5% and 2% in a carrier oil such as jojoba or sweet almond oil, roughly 3 to 12 drops per ounce of carrier. Always patch test on a small area first, and discontinue use if any irritation appears.
What sizes does Mandarin Essential Oil come in? ▾
We offer ten sizes in total, starting at a 0.5 oz bottle and scaling all the way up to a 400 lbs drum, with several steps in between for home users, small businesses, and formulators who need wholesale quantities.
Does the price per ounce change with size? ▾
Yes, per-ounce cost falls steadily as size increases. Because larger containers carry far less packaging and handling cost per ounce, our largest 400 lbs size works out to less than half the per-ounce price of our smallest 0.5 oz bottle.
Which size should I choose? ▾
A 0.5 oz or 1 oz bottle is plenty to try mandarin oil in a diffuser or a first DIY project. Reach for 2 oz to 8 oz for regular home use, and step up to 5 lbs or more once you are making products in maker or small-business quantities.
How fast do orders ship, and how do I check out? ▾
Orders typically ship within 1 to 2 business days. Bulk sizes of 5 lbs and up may need a little extra handling time before they leave our facility. Checkout runs through our Shopify store, so you can order any size securely in a few clicks.
What color and consistency does mandarin oil have? ▾
Mandarin oil is a light, watery liquid ranging from pale yellow to soft orange, similar to the fruit's own peel. It pours thin and clear, with no cloudiness, and naturally lightens slightly as the bottle ages, which is normal for a pressed citrus oil.
