Nosegay may also refer to the name of an

Animal Crossing.A nosegay, posey (or posy),
flower bouquet or tussie-mussie is a small bunch of
flowers, typically given as a gift. They have existed in some form since at least
medieval times, when they were worn around the head or on the lapel to mask the unpleasant smells of the time - literally, to keep the nose gay (to keep the nose happy). In their current form, they rose to popularity during the reign of
Queen Victoria, from
1837 onwards, at which time the tussie-mussie became a popular
fashion accessory. See the book entitled Tussie-Mussies, the Victorian Art of Expressing Yourself in the Language of Flowers, Workman Publishing, 1993.
