Tangerine essential oil is cold-pressed at harvest from the ripe peel of Citrus tangerina, a mandarin relative named for the port of Tangier. The aroma is vivid, juicy, and sweet, candy-bright and courtside-summer fresh, with more sparkle and less floral hush than mandarin itself.
Brighter Than Mandarin This oil's candy-sweet, sparkling aroma reads brighter and less floral than its closest citrus cousin, mandarin.

Buy Tangerine in Bulk
We happily fill bulk orders for tangerine essential oil, and every size, from a 0.5 oz sampler to a 400 lb drum, is poured from the very same batch standard. Formulators, makers, and resellers are always welcome here.
Add a few drops to your diffuser to fill kitchens and playrooms with a vivid, juicy citrus scent that lifts an ordinary afternoon into something brighter.
Tangerine essential oil is a concentrated botanical extract, not a finished skincare product. Dilute to 0.5% to 2% in a carrier oil before any skin contact, and patch test first. Keep away from eyes, children, and pets, and never take internally. Because cold-pressed citrus oils can heighten skin's sensitivity to sunlight, avoid sun exposure on freshly applied areas, and store the bottle away from warmth.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this tangerine oil pure? ▾
Yes. Every bottle of our tangerine essential oil is bottled 100% pure and undiluted, with nothing added and nothing diluted out. You can review the exact testing results for this batch in our published Certificate of Analysis before you buy.
How is tangerine oil different from mandarin oil? ▾
Tangerine and mandarin come from closely related citrus trees, but this oil, pressed from Citrus tangerina, smells noticeably brighter and more candy-sweet, with less of the soft floral hush that mandarin carries. Reach for tangerine when you want punchy citrus sparkle over gentle floral warmth.
What does tangerine essential oil smell like, and what blends well with it? ▾
Expect a vivid, juicy, and sweet scent, like peeling a ripe tangerine on a summer afternoon, brighter and less floral than mandarin. It pairs beautifully with vanilla, cinnamon, neroli, and nearly any other citrus oil on the shelf.
How do I dilute tangerine oil for use on skin? ▾
For skin contact, mix tangerine essential oil into a carrier oil like jojoba or sweet almond at 0.5% to 2%, roughly 3 to 12 drops per ounce of carrier depending on the strength you want. Always patch test first, and avoid sun exposure on treated skin afterward since cold-pressed citrus can increase photosensitivity.
What sizes does tangerine essential oil come in? ▾
We offer ten sizes of tangerine essential oil, starting at a 0.5 oz bottle for testing a new blend and scaling all the way up to 400 lbs for wholesale and manufacturing needs. Every size ships from the same batch standard, so quality never changes with quantity.
Does buying a bigger size save money per ounce? ▾
Yes. Per-ounce cost falls steadily as size increases, and our largest 400 lb size works out to less than half the per-ounce price of the smallest 0.5 oz bottle. Bulk sizes make the most sense once you know you'll use the oil regularly.
Which size of tangerine oil should I start with? ▾
A 0.5 oz or 1 oz bottle is plenty for testing tangerine in a diffuser blend or a small skincare batch. Regular users of home fragrance or DIY projects often prefer 4 oz to 8 oz, while soap and candle makers or resellers typically move straight to the 5 lb and up sizes.
How fast do orders ship? ▾
Orders typically ship within 1 to 2 business days. Bulk sizes of 5 lbs and up may need a bit of extra handling time before they leave our facility. Checkout for every size runs through our Shopify store, so you'll get the same order tracking regardless of quantity.
Does tangerine essential oil's scent change over time? ▾
Like most cold-pressed citrus oils, tangerine is a top note that fades faster than heavier oils like sandalwood or patchouli. Its vivid, juicy brightness is strongest in the months right after opening, so we recommend buying an amount you'll use within that window rather than stockpiling it for years.
