by I walked by this lilac bush and the scent was so powerful the first thing I did when I got home was order a lilac-scented Yankee Candle. Lilac is one of my favorite fragrances. I was surprised to smell them outside actually, because when I buy a bouquet of them they usually have a very weak scent. I remember when I could buy one bunch and their scent would fill my apartment. It was wonderful! As was walking by the ones here (Madison Square Park).
In Washington state we have a big Memorial lilac Garden every possible color or Style
You are so lucky!! My lilac candle showed up, and while it’s not as good as the scent of fresh lilacs, it’s nice.
