The white flower is Hedychium coronarium but I ignore the name of the pale yellow. both are very fragrant.

Philippe, I have a mature yellow form. A cut inflorescence in a container of water will fill a room with fragrance for days. My favorite aroma (except for a species of Tillandsia).

Gonz,

I didn't know about Tillandsia fragrance, you should post a topic about this species .

Where is "location, location" where you live?

Oceanside CA Philippe, about a mile as the crow flies from BS-man. Yes there are some Tillandsia species with extraordinary fragrances. Even the ubiquitous T. usneoides (Spanish Moss) with it's little green flowers has a nice aroma. I wonder if our friends in Florida are aware of this.
