The just reputation of this perfume places it in the first rank of the very best mixtures that have ever been made by any manufacturing perfumer. Its odor is truly flowery, but peculiar to itself. Being unlike any other aroma it cannot well be imitated, chiefly because there is nothing that we are acquainted with that at all resembles the odor of the esprit de rose, as derived from macerating rose pomade in spirit, to which, and to the extract of violet, nicely counterpoised, so that neither odor predominates, the peculiar character of "Spring Flowers" is due; the little ambergris that is present gives permanence to the odor upon the handkerchief, although from the very nature of the ingredients it may be said to be a fleeting odor. "Spring Flowers" is an Englishman's invention, but there is scarcely a perfumer in Europe that does not attempt an imitation. TULIP NOSEGAY. Nearly all the tulip tribe, although beautiful to the eye, are inodorous.

VIOLETTE DES BOIS. Under the head Violet, we have already explained the method of preparing the extract or essence of that modest flower. The Parisian perfumers sell a mixture of violet, which is very beautiful, under the title of the Violet des Bois, or the Wood Violet, which is made thus:-- Extract of violet, 1 pint. " orris, 3 oz. " cassie, 3 oz. " rose (from pomade) 3 oz. Otto of almonds, 3 drops. This mixture, in a general way, gives more satisfaction to the customer than the pure violet. WINDSOR CASTLE BOUQUET.
