Wrong. I suspect you have never smelled real orange blossoms.


Well, since I live in Toledo where they grow no oranges, you're
probably right. But I've got some hand cream that the label says
smells like orange blossoms. But I'll bet you've never smelled real
apple blossoms or cherry blossoms.


They grow both around here, but I've never been anywhere when/where they
were blooming. Apricot blossoms don't have much smell. We bought the
dwarf orange just for the smell of the blossoms, which is fortunate --
the most oranges we ever got: 8. Most years: 0-1. Lagniappe.


My neighbor had an apricot tree and my mother made the best apricot
preserves. Smuckers makes them almost as good as my mother's.

We had a plum tree in our backyard and the blossoms had very little
fragrance. But the cherry trees had a wonderous fragrance, and apple
blossoms smell like apples, but much more intense.
