What is this?

Hiya all.
I assume this is a Yucca?, but would appreciate if anyone can identify the specific variety.
I had no idea they could flower, and they didn't do this last year, could it be the long arid summer that has prompted it to flower?
Fragrance is incredible, the bees are completely intoxicated by it..

Looks like a Cordyline Australis

Yucca do flower once they mature, the flower stalks look rather scruffy when they go over, so it's best to cut them off.
Can't advise on the variety though, sorry.

I hate this plant normally but at the moment the fragrance is incredible (its one saving grace)!
You can smell it on the breeze even if you cannot see the plant itself.

I agree with Perki, it's a Cordyline Australis.

Thanks guys.
@madpenguin Yep, the whole garden is awash with the fragrance, and the bees just love it.
I inherited 3 of these with the house. Don't think I would have bought and planted them myself but I don't dislike them, they are quite architectural and I'm thinking of uplighting this one to provide a striking night focal point from the conservatory
