It is a 2 m high bush in our garden in Germany and the blooms have a
strong smell of pineapple, mango and other tropical fruits.

Calycanthus [family Calycanthaceae], probably _C. floridus_. It is
cultivated in Germany:

An interesting family, considered to be among the more "primitive"
flowering plants:
