Stephanotis floribunda Brongn. - syn. Stephanotis jasminoides Schltr.; Marsdenia floribunda (Brongn.) - Apocynaceae
Madagascar jasmine, waxflower, Kranzschlinge

Native vine of Madagascar. „Growing to 6m (20 ft) or more, it is an evergreen woody climber with glossy, leathery oval leaves and clusters of pure white, waxy, intensely fragrant tubular flowers.“ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephanotis_floribunda

„Stephanotis floribunda (Asclepediaceae), a plant that grows in Madagascar and is now a common house plant, emits a number of volatiles from its flowers. Its floral scent has been noted to increase in intensity during the night. At this time prominent scent compounds include benzyl alcohol, benzyl acetate, benzyl benzoate, eugenol, α-farnesene, linalool, linalool oxide, methyl benzoate (MBA), methyl salicylate (MSA), β-ocimene, phenylethyl alcohol, and 1-nitro-2-phenylethane.“

The flowery-spicy, cinnamon-like smelling 2-nitroethylbenzene (1-nitro-2-phenylethane) was found in the headspace trappings of Stephanotis floribunda at 27%.
