When it blooms in the summer, the fragrance is much stronger.

Also, just for your records, your plant is T. cyanea 'Triflor'. Triflor is a specific cultivar of cyanea, but it's still a species.

There actually aren't a lot of common cyanea hybrids in my experience. The only one I see with any regularity is Tillandsia Creation -- it's absolutely astounding.
