If I am not wrong it's called bela or chameli in India. It has a strong but very lovely fragrance. I have one variety in my terrace garden.

@Brideen40 Yes they are supposed to but I am not quite sure of it. Maybe the other plants in the garden attract mosquitoes and that's why I do get some mosquitoes in my garden.

This flower is very good and it blooms only at night, its aroma is very good, we have also planted this tree in our gardening.
But it's not blooming

@Brideen40 the plant has beautiful flower. Fragrance is also strong. Many people love it. I also like it. But don't know why I can't bear the smell. It gives me headache.
