The fruit salad type is just a term to group ones that have a similar multi-color look to them. Oftentimes, there is a lot of orange in them.

'Singapore' and 'Celadine' have that classic frangipani fragrance and are probably the ones that you remember smelling from 15 years ago. They are common in the sense that they are popular and easy to find. You could also go with 'Dwarf Singapore White,' which sounds like it would be perfect for you given your limited space.

'Gold Coast Cotton Candy' is a tall grower from what I remember about it, and it doesn't have a strong perfume that I'm aware of, but it is a pretty pink and yellow flower. You should feel free to call Florida Colors Nursery and talk to Carol and pick her brain about different cultivars because she can help you with a selection.
