In the book I'm translating, the author lists a number of wildflowers. I need to find the botanic name of one of them, but he (or his agent) doesn't reply to my questions. Here's hoping AskMe can help.

It's growing wild. Smells very unique - hard to put down exactly but some far away notes of maybe oregano/nasturtium - but that's just a guess. The whole plant/flower is soft. It grows among the thistles, tall grasses and other assortments including nettles and cleavers. The flower itself is a pink/purple with white streaks.
