Default fragrant flowers for shade or semi-shade?

Anyway, what flowers will grow in shade or semi-shade AND have a
pleasing aroma?


Lily of the valley form a robust shade ground cover and have exquisite
fragrance in late May. But the flowers are tiny. In semi-shade, you may
get lucky with some of the asclepias. I don't know them all but some
have a wonderful smell in July.
