hmmm Poet's jasmine

I have a couple of the Poet's Jasmine that I got last summer. The viny ones with segmented leaves. These have gotten very big. They're in 12" pots not, and lots of growth, lots of flowers.

Last year with a flower or two they had what I thought of as a nice scent. This year haven't found much scent. Maybe wrong time of day, maybe the old nose. But today, they both had a powerful scent. And not nice at all, too strong and with unpleasant notes in it.

Now I have to decide whether to keep these another winter. Anyone else have comments on the scent of this one?

This is one I would maybe grow over an old shed in the back of a big yard if I lived where it was hardy in the ground. I'm not sure it's for close ups.

Would really appreciate other's reactions to this scent.
