Arrangements of flowers gathered together and tied together for decoration or as a gift.
From French 'bouquet,' possibly from Old French 'bosc' (forest/woods), suggesting a small collection like picking flowers from the woods. Entered English in the 1600s.
In fancy wine-tasting language, 'bouquet' also means the smell of wine—so both a flower arrangement and a wine's aroma are called bouquets because they're both beautiful collections meant to be appreciated!
