Spring Blossoms

I don't know what kind of tree this is that blossoms in the spring.
The blossoms are beautiful but...

...they smell like dirty socks.

I can't say that I've had the pleasure of smelling that particular tree. Do they smell like little boy dirty socks or little girl dirty socks. One seems tolerable and the other I will know to stay clear away!

this tree is a Hawthorn tree...we had a large Hawthorn in our front yard when I was a child, so I became well acquainted with the foul stench of the blossoms...such a sensual contradiction
