The smell is lovely. I am happy I was able to get a picture because the next day when I went outside to water a Japanese beetle devoured the flowers making them look like swiss cheese, the culprit was still munching away when I got out there.

OH, no, what a shame. It's so very pretty. I hope you made swiss cheese out of the culprit!

Thank you all for the wonderful comments!!!

I was so perturbed by the beetle eating my flowers that I blasted it with the hose since the plant was out of my immediate reach! I am not sure if I killed him, but I didn't see another beetle on my flowers. Lol!
