To me the smell is reminiscent of Diorissimo perfume. Not sure if that's a good thing but I look forward to the heavenly scent wafting through my garden each August!

Agree beautiful! so glad you shine a light on one of my favorite plants.I bought a few at a local nursery and they are all abuzz in my woodland garden - but I must disagree about the smell. To me it’s sweet - almost too sweet. Maybe it’s my variety.

Thanks Marietta. We will start sniffing around some other cohosh plants for comparison. Might also depend on time on year sniffed...
