Many resources refer to the common white jasmine as a semi-evergreen, while technically a deciduous plant.

Does that mean the leaves remain green in temperate conditions? Or does it mean the plant loses its leaves only for a short time?

    Agree with the answer you've had - even in London, Jasmine officinale loses its leaves every winter, even in a mild winter. – Bamboo Mar 21 '22 at 11:16

I can't speak for warmer climes, but I maintained a mature one in north London for twenty years. Every winter it lost all its leaves. According to the RHS here, it's deciduous.
