Ask the Perfumer - Sunday, November 20, 2011 - until 10 PM EST

I wasn't ambitious enough to walk out in the front garden yet, since I still need some more coffee and a change of shoes, but I wanted to share the fragrant vision that lies outside my front door. At the end of my driveway is a HUGE jasmine azoricum vine in full flower that covers a hibiscus bush underneath! It must measure 10' high by 15' wide, and you can see it's full of flowers. The candlestick like branches in the foreground are my deciduous frangipani tree. The little bush between them is Tahitian gardenia.. A nice fragrant quintet of plants. The tiny, tiny yellow aglaia flowers are filling the front garden with their beautiful scent. I'll be harvesting tod
