Nothing says tropics better than the frangipani flower. When the trees are in full bloom, a beautiful scent gets carried away in the wind. Basically all you need is the Moijito in your hand, beside the pool and you are set. In keeping with the massive Twilight theme of the current day, in Malay folklore the scent of the frangipani has been associated with vampires! In other cultures of SE Asia local folklore beliefs have the flower providing shelter to ghosts and demons. Eastern Africa sometimes they are referenced in Swahili love poems. Our Pacific neighbours use them in leis. If you wear one over your right ear you are seeking a relationship; the left taken, so hands off. It really is a beautiful flower of the tropics and now there are shades to take you away to paradise that little bit further.
