No. Their only Hyacinth now is the Hyacinth and Bluebell Home Range,
room sprays and candles. The other very English-y companies lack a
Hyacinth too. The nearest is probably L'Artisan Parfumeur's Jacinthe
de Bois, discontinued but still around, but someone said if you like
hyacinth you'd be better off with their La Haie Fleurie du Hameau.

Yes. I like Penhaligon's Bluebell (also expensive, unfortunately).
