Of all the citrus oils, Mandarin Oil is the sweetest and tends to be most calming. It is considered very uplifting. Mandarin Essential Oil is very healing and is said to work as an antiseptic, antispasmodic, depurative, digestive, hepatic, nervous relaxant, sedative, stomachic, and tonic substance.
 
Aromatically, it blends well with many other essential oils including citrus, floral, wood, spice and herb families of oils. Mandarin Essential Oil is a favourite of children and parents. If desiring to diffuse a citrus oil in the evenings before bed or with children, Mandarin Essential Oil may be the best choice.
