Default Intensely fragrant shrub?

Hi all.

I'm looking for a smallish, highly fragrant flowering shrub. I'd like a
pair of them. One will be in a semi-shaded location, one will be in
full sun.

Zone 7b / 8a (South Carolina).

While I adore them, gardenias don't like me.

Any other suggestions?

Donna, how about a Philadelphus? I've always found it to be one of the most
fragrant shrubs. Very easy, and there are lots of cultivars in varying sizes
and flower types.

Daphne is beautiful but can be a little tricky for dieback.
