What is mandarin oil?

Mandarin oils are extracted from the fruit of the Citrus nobilis tree. Depending on the ripeness of the fruit when it's harvested, the oil will taste and smell different. When the peel is still green, the fruit is low in sugar, and so the oil has a rather green and citrusy scent. When the peel turns yellow, the oil becomes much sweeter, and finally, when it's orange-red, it takes on a floral note similar to neroli.
