Muskari

Muskari, either the Mouse hyacinth, or the Viper onion is a sort of small bulbous grassy plants of the family of Hyacinthine, numbering from 30 to 60 types. Almost all of them derived from a set of grades as decorative as their bright flowers are first very attractive externally, and secondly, pleasantly (in addition strongly) smell. Aromas are similar to aroma of musk, than and the Latin name is caused. And that is why the mouse and a viper are mentioned in the Russian names.
