The answer of    was rated best

...une gerbe ou un parfum

My comment:

The context of the phrase seems somewhat ambiguous. If ''spray'' refers to flowers/greenery then GERBE would be the correct terminology. If ''spray'' refers to perfume/cologne then of course PARFUM would be correct.

My references:

The asker's comment:

Je vous remercie Valentina et tous les autres traducteurs. En fait, je n'arrive pas à comprendre s'il s'agit d'une gerbe ou d'un parfum.
