Potpourri
It is a noun that refers to a mixture of perfumed dried flowers and buds, sometimes also herbs and spices, kept in a bowl or jar, and is used to spread fragrance in a room or shelf. It also refers to a wide assortment of many things, seemingly even unrelated. It is used to refer to a musical medley too.
Origin:
A word associated with a pleasant smell is actually derived from the French word “pot pourri”, which literally translates to rotten pot. The 17th Century word described a stew that was prepared using several kinds of meats cooked together. However, it is not clear when exactly the word took a fragrant turn.
Example:
The evening was a potpourri of jazz, blues and folk music.
