I also think I have seen this in the Caribbean and the perfume is intoxicating... Strong like hyacinth and beautiful from a distance, but gives me a headache with too much and too close.
Having said that, it is such a wonderful addition to any piece of landscape and I am sure the bees appreciate you!
The BATS do love it!!! It does sound like the same plant and yes!!! I bet you are glad you moved it! I hope you are doing well and having a wonderful week!
The Caribbean will be it's nick name, by power of the vote in comments given, batty bats have it for all of a month once a year, let them enjoy it, I love the perfume wafting through the house.
I am pretty sure I saw trees like this in the Caribbean. I remember the perfume, it was similar to lily. Very strong, almost intoxicating. It was some sort of Clematis family. 😊

We moved the plant after first flowering session thirty odd years ago Denise, so glad we did.
Sounds like this was a Caribbean import, the bats appear to love it and the bees go crazy....

The beauty of the nature is always mesmerizing!
Beauty in nature is what keeps us sane.
I have no idea what is this flower actually is. But we don't have to know the name to enjoy the beauty, right? :)
Good captures.
Does not need to be named when sharing the perfume wafting along the air, you sure notice it!
I must confess that I have never seen anything like this. It is beautiful though.

Flowers are dainty, pretty strong perfume.
Great shots. That bee couldn’t hide from that quality camera eye!
So many bees and butterflies out at the moment, autumn brings fresh blossoms to town.
