Hi Olesya, I have waymaniae but I doubt its 'orange peel'? I posted a couple of pictures of my plant and the blooms. You can compare it...

I've been pretty lucky with mine so far...its grown well but I was warned and read that it is a fussy and sometimes temperamental . I grow mine outside under trees most of the year...I bring it inside only when the temps dip below 45 degrees. I water it really well and let it dry out a bit before watering again. I fertilize it about every 8-10 days "lightly"...it gets bright to semi shade but very little sun. Mine bloomed about a year or so after I got it...usually blooms 2-3 times a year if I'm lucky Rolling my eyes. This is a hard one for me to root however ...

Actually, I don't smell any fragrance (or at least I don't remember it,lol) I think because I grow I my hoyas outside I miss a lot of the fragrance, but I'm sure I would have remembered the scent of a citrus peel...since I love oranges,lol...Thanks for the nice comments Smiling
