As much as the beauty of the blooms, the scent is crucial in a garden. Awaken your senses all year long with our selection of intoxicatingly fragrant plants.
Mahonia
Mahonia: With its golden winter blooms, mahonia perfumes the garden with the scent of lily of the valley at the time it is most needed. Hardy, withstanding both wind and pollution, this shrub is a 'must have' in the garden.
Narcissus
Narcissus : bulbous plant with a strong perfume, it comes in many varieties with single or double flowers in bright colors. Some of them are very early and perfume the garden from February.
Camellia

The rose
The rose: in the land of perfumes, it has no equal. Splendid in its bushy version or exuberant when it is climbing, the rose finds its place in all gardens without exception. Powerful effluvia in 'Bolshoi', intense and fruity in 'Charles de Gaulle' or intoxicating in 'Papa Meilland', you are bound to find the rose that suits your nose!
