Durio zibethinus

Durio zibethinus is the most common tree species in the genus Durio, commonly known as durian and has edible fruits by the same name.

As with most other durian species, the edible flesh emits a distinctive odour that is strong and penetrating even when the husk is intact. Some people regard the durian as having a pleasantly sweet fragrance; others find the aroma overpowering and revolting. The persistence of its odour has led to the fruit's banishment from certain hotels and public transportation in Southeast Asia.
