Best-Smelling Flowers
Hyacinth
These vibrantly-colored clusters of flowers feature a scent that is described as earthy and sweet. Hyacinth flowers come in a variety of colors like pink, red, purple, white, orange, and blue. Its aroma develops as the bud blooms, starting out as lightly floral and becoming more intense and heady as it opens. Emitting a scent so sweet that it deters pests and animals, a vase of Hyacinths is an excellent pick-me-up for anybody who loves sweet fragrances.
Freesia
Another type of flower that comes in a variety of vibrant colors, Freesias have a sweet, fruity scent. These small, delicate flowers pack a fragrant punch that is a delight to any nose.
Rose
Intoxicating and mysterious, roses have the type of scent poets have been trying to describe for centuries. Actually, a rose’s smell can vary based on its growing conditions, variety, and age. Garden roses and darker colored roses such as red and pink tend to have the strongest, rose perfumy type of scent, whereas lighter-colored roses can have a citrusy aroma.
Peony
Considered one of the best-smelling flowers around, Peonies have a fresh sweet fragrance that can fill a room. The double white and pink peonies tend to have the strongest aroma while red ones don’t have much of a smell at all. Lush, full, and sumptuous, a gift of terrific smelling peonies is one that will please anybody.
Sweet Pea
The delicate, pleasing aroma of the Sweet Pea is what makes it a favorite of soaps, perfumes, and lotions. Sweet and gentle, this flower pairs well with other scented florals. With fragile petals that make up a small bloom, the scent of the Sweet Pea more than makes up for its size. This is a flower that adds a wonderful pop of color and pleasing fragrance to any arrangement.
Lily
Lilies come in a range of colors as well as scents from barely there to pleasant smelling to overwhelmingly fragrant and perfumey. Starfighter lilies take the prize for having the strongest scent which is described as sweet and tropical. Sonata lilies have more of a light, citrusy aroma which is more subtle. Rose Lilies, though, offer just a hint of a delightful light smell.
Lavender
The scent of lavender is soothing and pleasant and has been cherished for centuries. Fresh cut lavender can last for over a week in water and since it dries well, its aroma can be enjoyed for a long time.
