A surprising combination that creates unique and memorable compositions.
Citrus
Mandarin orange smells like biting into a sun-warmed orange on a summer afternoon—bright, juicy, and intensely sweet, but with a slightly floral, almost creamy undertone that distinguishes it from sharper citrus fruits like lemon. It's warmer and softer than bergamot, less bitter than grapefruit, with a whisper of honeyed smoothness. Imagine the concentrated essence of that sticky-fingered moment when you peel the fruit and release its aromatic oils—that's mandarin's character: immediately uplifting, naturally sweet, and wrapped in an almost candied warmth.
Citrus
Minneola tangelo smells like that precise moment when you peel a mandarin and the oils burst into the air—but richer, juicier, and slightly deeper. Imagine biting into a perfectly ripe tangelo on a warm afternoon: there's a bright, almost honey-sweet citrus burst upfront, followed by a floral undertone that feels almost creamy. It's less sharp than lemon, less perfumey than bergamot, and carries a subtle spiced warmth beneath the fruit. Think fresh-squeezed juice with a whisper of honeyed nectar and warm skin.
