Mandarin peel oil is an orange-brown to dark yellowish-brown or olive-brown, occasionally lemon yellow (certain types of handpressed oil), mobile liquid.
The concentrated oil is, accordingly, very dark and its solubility in alcohol only slightly improved.
Mandarin peel oil has an intensely sweet, not very fresh odor, occasionally with an amine-like, 'fishy' topnote and usually with a rich neroli-like, floral undertone.
Mandarin peel oil gives interesting modifications with sweet and bitter orange oils, grapefruit oil, lime oil, etc. in flavor compositions for soft drinks, candy, etc.
In perfumery, mandarin peel oil is used sparingly in colognes as a modifier for other citrus oils, in neroli bases, in fantasy 'moss' notes, or as particular note for 'special' effects.
Mandarin peel oil is used mainly in flavors where it gives interesting modifications with sweet and bitter orange oils, grapefruit oil, lime oil, etc.
The mandarin peels are expressed either by hand or by machine in Europe.
