Yes, star jasmine is indeed fragrant.
Star jasmine ( Trachelospermum jasminoides ) is highly prized for its exceptionally sweet and powerful fragrance. The small, white, star-shaped flowers, which bloom in clusters during the spring and summer months, release a perfume that can easily fill an entire garden or outdoor space. The fragrance is often described as sweet, floral, and similar to jasmine. Its intense scent makes it a popular choice for planting near patios, windows, and walkways where its fragrance can be readily enjoyed.
In summary, the intensely sweet scent of star jasmine flowers is one of its defining characteristics, making it a desirable addition to any garden seeking fragrance.
