Absolutely, "Angel's Trumpet" is one of its usual names (I'm sure the Dodgers are jealous)--a Datura of some sort, probably
Datura candida. Beautiful look and flower scent, leaves stinky. Well, and the plant is poisonous, too, if you ingest enough...
edit: Strictly speaking, the shrubby species of
Datura, like the one in the pic, were split off into a genus of their own, namely
Brugmansia (the remaining Daturas proper more or less sprawl along the ground). But people tend to call them all Daturas...
