Differences:
In case of Dracaena fragrans, the flowers are in clusters, these clusters (please excuse my naive way of expressing far-fetched analogy) are analogous to that in Dendrocalamus strictus. In case of Cordyline fruticosa, each flower is spaced far apart from another, along the stem (¿ peduncle ?).

Secondly, Dracaena draco, both word, i.e., Dracaena and draco means DRAGON as partially stated before. This plant is found in wild in Macaronesia and Morocco both of which are not in Amazon. Yes this plant does have a blood red sap, as stated earlier, which is used for medicinal purpose. True Dracaena is very widespread distributed in the tropics and subtropics. In India they are represented by only two species, namely, Dracaena terniflora Roxb. and Dracaena thwaitesii Regel. – NPGS / GRIN at http://www.ars-grin.gov/cgi-bin/npgs/html/taxon.pl?28861 puts Pleomele fragrans as synonym of Dracaena fragrans. My plant at http://www.flickr.com/photos/dinesh_valke/5432752769/, looks more like Cordyline fruticosa.
For a closer view of the inflorescence of the same plant : http://www.flickr.com/photos/dinesh_valke/5433366154/ Few days back, … posts and responses discussed confusion between Dracaena fragrans and Cordyline fruticosa. – It is not the colour of flowers to be perceived for comparing my plant and ..’s. The difference lies in the arrangement of flowers.
In case of Dracaena fragrans, the flowers are in clusters, these clusters (please excuse my naive way of expressing far-fetched analogy) are analogous to that in Dendrocalamus strictus.
In case of Cordyline fruticosa, each flower is spaced far apart from another, along the stem (¿ peduncle ?).
Though this difference is seen between my and … plants, another set of examples showing inflorescence of each species:
