### Mandarins Reach the Mediterranean

Citrus came to the West in stages. Sour oranges, limes and pomelos arrived through Muslim traders in the 10th century AD. Sweet oranges reached Europe in the 15th century. Mandarins reached the Mediterranean only in the early 19th century.

### The Orange Blossoms of Seville

In al-Andalus, bitter orange trees were grown for their blossoms. The flowers were distilled into orange-flower water for hospitality, cooking and ritual.

### Using and Storing Your Oil

Add a few drops of this mandarin fragrance oil to your own base. An orange blossom jasmine scent suits a potpourri bowl. A citrus herb scent also works well in creams.

If you add it to candles, follow your wax maker's guidance. Never leave a burning candle unattended. Keep the cap tight and store the bottle upright, away from heat and direct sun.

Mandarin is a late arrival in the Mediterranean story, but its sweetness fits the region's gardens. Pair a mandarin petitgrain scent with a sunny windowsill. An orange blossom jasmine scent evokes Andalusian courtyards. A citrus herb scent keeps things fresh.
