It smells very sweet! Michelia species are famous for their very sweet fragrant flowers. It's related to Magnolia.

Milky:

Michelia trees have such a sweet fragrance...it make you want to eat the flowers. LOL!

In the San Francisco Bay Area the trees appear to grow much larger than here in San Diego. They love more rain and cooler weather. I've seen Michelia trees in the S. F. Bay Area more than 50 feet/ 15 meters tall and wide.
