Unknown scent flowers

Unknown scent flowers · 05:44 AM

Hi all!
Please help me!
I found in Crete, Greece, a very perfumed shrub or little tree, unknown to me.
During the day there is no scent and the flowers (white-pale green) are closed.

During the entire night the flowers are open and the scent is very strong.

Do you know the name of this plant?
Thanx!

Isn't that some kind of jasmine? Wild guess, I had one as a house plant for a while, and it looked similar. And it was very intensely scented!

Thanx, Julie!
I don't think it's a jasmine: the scent is different and the scent is nil during the day (light hours). In Greek, it's name is something "night flower".
Regards!
