My best bet is one of the Caprifoliaceae, either Leycesteria or

suspect it is not that.

I fount that! It looks to me as if it is in berry, not flower!
Yes, I know what you mean. How about this?

I have one 2 years old from seed, but it hasn't flowered yet. Unfortunately,
it is a lot less hardy than its better-known relative. I tried a 60 cm
(one-year old) plant outside near to a large formosana I've had for 7 years.
It was well-protected by other trees and shrubs, but didn't survive last
year's (mild) winter. Maybe it was too small.
