As a gardening and landscaping expert, I can tell you that while jasmine and Sampaguita both have a floral fragrance, they do have some differences in their scent profiles. While jasmine has a delicate and sweet aroma, Sampaguita has a much stronger and more intense scent. This is one of the reasons why Sampaguita is often referred to as the “queen of Philippine flowers” due to its powerful fragrance.
I have had the pleasure of experiencing both jasmine and Sampaguita in various settings, and I can say that the scent of Sampaguita is truly captivating. Its fragrance is often described as sweet, floral, and intoxicating. The scent is so strong that even a single blossom can fill a room with its delightful aroma.
Jasmine, on the other hand, has a more subtle and delicate scent. It is often described as sweet and romantic, with a hint of freshness. The fragrance of jasmine is commonly used in perfumes and aromatherapy due to its calming and soothing properties.
In terms of appearance, the blossoms of Sampaguita and jasmine are quite different. Sampaguita flowers are smaller and have a star-like shape with white petals, while jasmine flowers are larger and have a more rounded shape with white or yellow petals.
To summarize the differences in the scent of jasmine and Sampaguita:
