Anxiolytic, Mood Boost, Sedative
⚗️ Chemistry
d-Limonene (~90%), g-Terpinene, Myrcene, Methyl N-methyl anthranilate (trace).
🛡️ Safety
Note: Tangerine oil often contains methyl anthranilate (especially red tangerine), which is not a hazard but has a strong grape-like odor – at high heat it can form soot. In normal diffusion, it’s fine. Like all citrus, use fresh oil to avoid irritant oxidation products.
