Product Notice, January 13, 2025: This product has been discontinued due to low sales. If you're a fan of Mimosa and Mandarin, we recommend trying Citron and Mandarin.

Now available as part of CandleScience CleanScents®, this bubbly citrus fragrance went through a subtle revision to intensify the mimosa flower while keeping the level of sparkling effervescence just the same. We hope both new and previous lovers of this fragrance will appreciate this slight tweak of sweet and citrus to more closely match the much-loved original.

Brighten homes with a refreshing citrus burst of Mimosa and Mandarin candles and wax melts, or add a touch of effervescence to soaps, scrubs, and other body care products. And, as an added bonus, this fragrance is now approved for use in reed diffusers.

This fragrance oil is infused with natural orange essential oil.

Blend recommendations: Orange Blossom, Ocean Breeze, White Tea, Magnolia and Peony

Alternative branding ideas: Sparkling Mandarin, White Petals and Citrus, Clementine Peel, Sunday Brunch

Suggested colors: Orange, Peach

We did experience slight acceleration but no separation. We achieved a very light trace quickly, but with just hand-stirring it held and did not appear to thicken. With a few quick pulses of the stick blender it was very close to a thick trace. The batter remained workable and poured into the mold smoothly while just the last few bits had thickened in the pot. After 24 hours, the soap discolored to a very light yellow and the scent was strong. We observed the soap only reached a partial gel. After 30 days, the soap discolored to a light tan color and the fragrance faded slightly, but was still true to the scent. Hand-stirring in the fragrance at a very light trace may allow for extra time to work on more detailed designs.

Will be missed

MissLadyD 2025-03-12

While the reformulation wasn't as good as the original, it was still a good scent. I really hope you'll consider bringing back the original formula of Mimosa & Mandarin; I use it in one of my most popular blends.

Bummed

Lindsey 2025-02-17

This one is an absolute delight and I'm so bummed to see it go. There's been SO many that have been discontinued that are huge favorites and it's leaving me struggling where to find something similar.

Don't judge by OOB smell

Wendi S. 2024-10-28

I've had this fragrance oil for 2 years because I agree with others, the OOB smell IS funky!. In melted 464 wax it takes on a complete different vibe though. It reminds me a little of orange spice tea but the amber and benzoin make it more warm and almost sensual. It is saying "Aveda" to me. Once I forgot the description of what it was supposed to smell like, I began to really love it.

Holds well in CP soap - feminine

Skyway Gardens Soapery 2024-07-28

Notes from 2/5/24: Temps- Oils 93, Lye 82; FO 5% PPO; four color modified OPW swirl. Slight acceleration but manageable. Used TD to offset discoloration. 7/28/24 Notes: Very light tan to cream discoloration so glad I used TD. Fragrance holding well, not overly strong but is a good level of scent. Fragrance is pleasant, feminine, not really floral, more perfumey. I don't detect citrus at all. I see other reviews mentioned the off-smell OOB, I didn't notice that when I used it. I knocked off a star because of the lack of citrus, but would have rated a 4.5 if I could have.
