Thank you @Buzzy2 and @Obelixx I thought it would be something common, but Privet! It’s so beautiful right now and bees love the flowers (and so do I). 😊
I agree privet, I have it growing wild here and it can take over everything if not hacked back. In fact, I’m sure it was Obelixx that ID’d it for me! Weird smell though, bit marmite.

That’s true, the smell is not particularly exciting, but the shrub it self looks great and gives us excellent privacy screen as it stays green all winter long and it’s tall enough at this stage. I wish the neighbours on the other side would grow them too 😄
