They're the very fragrant witch hazel. We made the mistake of planting it it
at the furthest end of our garden so to small it we have to go down there.
Worth it, though :-)

It's also used to treat buising.

From a gardening site:

Hamamelis, witch hazel
Hamamelis, commonly known as witch hazel, produces delicate blooms with
intoxicating scent in the depths of winter. Ribbon petals are tucked in
knobbly clusters of plump buds along naked branches in a range of citrus
shades.
