They say that bloom fragrance is subjective so I guess it depends on whoever's nose is doing the smelling. Smiling It's been a few years since I grew DS-70 so I don't remember the fragrance. I've heard some describe it as having a slight honey fragrance but I don't remember it smelling like honey so I will be curious to hear what others say it smells like to them.

In my experience, with my Hoya's, when they are hanging outside I can't detect much fragrance at all but WOW, with some of them, when they are inside the house, the fragrance is quite strong! I had a few Hoya lacunosa's and Hoya australis plants awhile back and moved them indoors during a cold spell in winter and the fragrance was really wonderful but so overpowering that I had to put them back out on the enclosed porch.
