Flowering bush ID?

This bush/shrub is in our back yard. The wife loves it and the bees seem to as well, though I'll be darned if I can smell anything from the flowers.

It stands about 8'-10' high and would probably grow taller if not for the fact that it is shaded by more than one large tree.

Any help identifying it would be appreciated.

Me too.
Interesting you say the flowers don't smell-the bushes I've known have a pretty strong orange blossom-y scent.
They love heavy pruning. No need to of course, but it stops them getting 'leggy' and twiggy.
Every once in a while I'd take out the old, corky-looking wood right at the ground and shorten the young canes/branches.

This is a deutzia, don't know the common english name.

Aha! The lack of scent makes me think you're probably right
