This one might be my favorite hoya perfume of all...to me (with apologies to GG :-D) it smells like soft ginger with just a hint of something citrusy--lime maybe? It's NOT my favorite hoya though, because I just don't seem to be able to grow it well...every winter it suffers from a near-death experience...the leaves shrivel and get soft, some of them yellow and fall off, and the whole plant just sort of collapses...every Spring I put it back out on the deck where it slowly recovers, maybe even puts out a little new growth, then back inside where it musters up enough strength to give me a bloom cluster or two, then the long deterioration starts again...it's very frustrating...
