Another id, Zone 6 NYS, possibly native, definitely invasive

Taken today. This shrub is HEAVILY fragrant, sweet and, to me, cloying. Almost like lilac, but a bit more potent, and sort of honeysuckle-y as well.

Hi Kdodds.

Looks very much like a Stephanotis to me.
Needs protection over here in the UK and is grown for its tremendous scent.

Nope, sorry, 4 petals, not as waxy leaves. Actually, the leaves are very lightly fuzzy and not waxy at all.
