They do have a spicy scent...some like it, some don't. I had mine in the dining room, and as soon as you walked in the room you were hit with that smell. The same goes for Stargazer Oriental Lilies...they have a strong smell that some people don't like.

I have to admit, I don't like the smell either....

I do like the lilies, as long as it's from a small distance.. they are strong I think.....
*I have some white stargazers, I can smell from
my mother's yard, NEXT DOOR, they're soooo strong.*

Yep, Ninni, if you just cut off those big stamen's on the lilies.... they do cute down on your allergies..
and, that stuff stains like crazyyyyyyyyy!!!
So, it's good to cut them off if you bring the flowers in for a vase.

A friend gave them to me a couple of years ago. I have to admit, I didn't like the "odor" either. I had to put them far away from the house. The friend who gave them to me loves Paper Whites. To each his own, I guess!!!!!

A little note here. All cats are allergic to all lily pollen. If you bring the flowers indoors and your cat gets pollen on them, then clean themselves, they can die in just a few hours.

I started a new thread on the lilies in the Banter Hall called Poisonous to Cats, if anyone wants to have a look.
