Another fragrant one in the same Magnolia family as the YlangYlang is the Michelia Alba (Champaca). I purchased a blooming shrub from the Kinoole farmers market couple of weeks ago for $15. The best $15 dollars I've ever spent! It just smells so heavenly. If my memory serves me right, it is the base fragrance for the perfume JOY.
