fragrant blossoms

Sweet-smelling blooms

Fragrant blossoms are flowers that give off a pleasant scent.

The phrase appears most often in poetry, gardening contexts, and product marketing for perfumes or air fresheners.

While any sweet-smelling flower qualifies, the term evokes traditional garden favorites like roses, jasmine, and honeysuckle.
