something highly fragrant

HI,
I require a nice bush/plant that can be grown in a pot on a patio....something extremely fragrant would be good....last year in the south of France there was an un-interesting looking hedge type plant around a car park....The whole car park smelt as if someone had just sprayed the worlds nicest air freshener all over..... something to make my patio smell lovely in summer...any ideas what it was?...or any ideas of other plants please!!!!

 

Could have been Pittosporum Tobira. I have the variegated form and they both have a heady scent from their creamy yellow flowers .Mine is in a pot and survived the cold snaps unscathed. The common green form has glossy green leaves and makes a good container plant(can be pruned).

How about Abelias? All are fragrant, some are evergreen, most flower for a good while in mid or late summer. Some tend to branch a bit.
I've never had Pittosporum- sounds lovely.
