Wherever there are Elaeagnus angustifolia trees, you can smell the delicious fragrance far away. I remember when I first arrived in Jinchang, every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, residents in the bungalow area would fold a few Elaeagnus angustifolia flowers and put them in bottles, and the fragrance would last for five or six days. Speaking of Elaeagnus angustifolia flowers, Jinchang, a flower city with high reputation, may be the most inconspicuous, but there are flowers everywhere. Her flowers are as big as rice grains, and they are pale yellow and inconspicuous.

Shyly hidden among the silvery white leaves, but its fragrance is very unique, so that you will never forget it. Unlike Sophora japonica, rose and peony, it doesn't give off a faint fragrance, nor does it give off a faint fragrance like peony, lavender and verbena. The fragrance of Elaeagnus angustifolia flowers is mellow. Like a can of old wine that has been uncovered. Its fragrance is rich, mellow and long, which can almost make people intoxicated.
