Muguet or lily-of-the-valley, is a delicate white floral with green and indolic facets. Christian Dior has proclaimed that the muguet was his lucky charm. The French view the blooming of this flower to be the sign that Spring is here, with the fragrance house Guerlain releasing a limited edition every year of this flower. This flower is associated with love, innocence, purity, tenderness. Distillation of this flower does not yield any essential oil however, so perfumers have to reconstruct the fragrance of this flower synthetically.
