What is the True Plumeria Fragrance?

WHAT IS THE TRUE PLUMERIA FRAGRANCE? by Richard Criley (Link to Website Research)

In the proof-reading phases of the University of Hawaii's Plumeria Cultivars in Hawaii bulletin 158, the editor disagreed with the authors on the nature of the fragrance of several of the plumeria cultivars. It brought to mind the differences that people come with in describing odors. Plumeria flower fragrances can be described as weak, mild or strong, with the strongly scented ones characterized in terms of other fragrances: citrus, coconut, rose, cinnamon, carnation, jasmine, gardenia, fru ity, or even woody.
