Chimonanthes praecox has almost plasticky translucent flowers, aka Wintersweet it has a honey like smell and is originally from China, and is used there to scent linen and herbal tea.

This Hamamelis doesn't have a smell but is beautiful in the sun.

Hellebore foetidissima

Daphne bholua 'Peter Smithers' out in full bloom.

My favourite - Sarcoccocca confusa lifts the spirit everytime one walks pass it, S. hookeriana & S. ruscifolia has the same effect.

An early type of Galanthus that has already got going.
Thank you for the update on Dixter! It is nice to see so many winter gems out. We have just a few little snowdrops here in PA, USA.
