My mom bought this at a local nursery a few years ago and I guess it didn't have a tag as she's never known what it is. She wants to get a few more however because when flowering like this it smells GLORIOUS. It's a very powerful, sweet scent that you can smell a very large distance away.
I'd like to ID it so I can maybe buy a few and surprise her for her birthday. Thanks!

Yup, some kind of viburnum. There are lots of different varieties of them. If that one has been planted a few years, it is likely one of the dwarf varieties.
It is one of my all-time favorite shrubs... as you said, so fragrant one shrub will perfume your garden. Then later it gets berries that birds like, and in the fall it gets fall foliage color.
