Crossword Genius

Clutched by soprano, second bouquet (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nose

'bouquet' is the definition.
(both can mean a smell)

'clutched by soprano second' is the wordplay.
'clutched by' indicates a hidden word.
'NOSE' can be found hidden inside 'soprano second'.

(Other definitions for nose that I've seen before include "See 7" , "See 1" , "Conk (slang)" , "Organ of smell" , "Organ of face" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
