I just ID'd this! Several years ago I bought a daff mix. This is the first daff that I have been able to name. I love it as it is blooming now and most of my other daffs are fading away. I will have to mark them for division- or buy more! The fragrance is very nice, too.

I just added it to the garden this season and I love it already. The orange sections emphasize the many layers (see the pic). The name fits it well - even the fragrance seems tropical.
