From Turkey(Publ House Bulgarian Acad Sci, 2022) Zarifikhosroshahi, Mozhgan; Ergun, Zeynep; Alp, Sevket; Ozturk, Gulsah YasaHyacinth (Hyacinthus orientalis L.) is one of the most beloved ornamental plants with fragrant flowers. As one of the important bulbous plants, hyacinth is used as a cut flower, potted flower, and garden flower. Due to their unique aroma, hyacinth flowers are used in perfumery especially in France whose per-fume industry is well-known in the world. In this study, Headspace Solid Phase Micro Extraction (HS-SPME) GC/MS (Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrom-etry) technique was used for the analysis of volatile compounds of flower sam-ples. A total of 28 volatile compounds were identified in the fresh flowers of hyacinths. Phenylethyl alcohol, benzyl acetate, a-pinene, and furfural were the major aromas accounting for hyacinth fragrance.
