I just clipped a few Lillies of Valley and put them in a small vase. They are my all time favorite fragrant flower. In fact, I use to wear a perfume (I can pronounce it and it begins with an M, but I can't spell it) that was so close to the flowers' bouquet. I know spring is here when I can see these cute little bell shaped flowers in bloom. Does anyone know the name of that perfume? (Moguet?)

It is called Muguet with two times the letter u in the word. I like lillies of the valleyy, too. The German word is Maiglöckchen. It means little bells of May. I have some in my yard, some years more, this year less. So this year I look at them outside, I cherish them and do not want them to vanish. But last year I had many and had put some in a vase.

Thanks. I wonder if they still make it? Muguet, that looks right, but my memory is hazy as this was many, many years ago. Are you from Germany?

Yes, you can get this cologne online, but several different manufacturers make it... I love my lily plants also and recently saw that you can get them in pink also!

I love lillies of the valley as well. They are my 2nd favorite flower. I'm sorry I don't know this perfumes name, but I wish I could find a nice lily of the valley scent though.
