yeah, the flava cat-smell is most noticeable, the sweeter-smelling ones are harder to detect, although the lilacs are also in bloom right now, so it's hard to notice anything unless you stick your nose right in it.

Ditto! Thanks for sharing! Best of luck this season... it's been on the cool side over here too.
