Hyacinth Fragrance- yes or no?

The scent of Hyacinth smells like Easter to me. I wouldn’t want to wear it as a perfume, though.

I’d thought it a female name but looked up Hyacinth in Greek Mythology and discovered he was killed by the bounce of a discus, attributed to Zephyr blowing on it.

Hyacinth – a breath of Spring and seem easily identified, even if you were blindfolded.

Could you distinguish the difference between – a lily, narcissus and hyacinth with just your olfactory sense?
