What looks like honeysuckle, but is not honeysuckle?

I have a large shrub, that has flowers that look exactly like honeysuckle. This is a woody shrub, rather than a vine. Also, these flowers do not have much of a scent. Anyone know what kind of flower or shrub it is?

Reply:Could it be privet honeysuckle? It is not as pretty as regular honeysuckle.
Reply:PHOTO YOUR BUSH IN BLOOM AND TAKE THE PICTURE TO A GARDEN CENTER AND SEE IF THEY CAN ID---OR TAKE YOUR PHOTO TO THE LIBRARY AND LOOK IN FLOWER BOOKS.
