    I grew those one year, some for my daughter, my mum and me, we all agreed they smelt of dog 💩 and put them outside. Unbearable and embarrassing in the house😀
    different noses smell things differently, my family we’re all in agreement but yours may like them. 
    I thought they smelled really nice. Very daffodilly. I've messed up the timings this year though and they'll be fading in a few days by the looks of it.
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    My sister had a beautiful bouquet of the paperwhites once...she thought the cat had made a puddle somewhere! I found them ok. Can’t have Hyacinths here as OH gets nauseated. 
    My garden and I live in South Wales.
