I can get it locally at the Williamsburg Pottery Factory food store,
although their selection has been going down in the past couple years.
They no longer stock the Jackson's _Prince of Wales_ for instance.

I think the standard jasmine can grow as far north as zone 6. If you
are farther north than that, you can probably plant it indoors. If you
are planting indoors, you might as well go whole hog and get the
night blooming variety (which is not at all cold-hardy). I grew up with
the stuff all over the place and it's sort of a familiar garden kind of
smell for me.
