Definitely looks like it, but that site says it's a fall bloomer, and the pic was taken 3/26. I'm thinking Carolina Jasmine as this is the time it would bloom.

I copied this from your link, LIcenter:

Swamp jessamine (Gelsemium rankanii), also known as Rankin's jessamine, is a native southeastern species. Unlike Carolina jessamine, it flowers heavily both in fall as well as in spring. Flowers may even appear sporadically during warmer days of winter.

^^Leaf structure on hypericum is totally different than OP's plant. Consensus is Jasimine.

It is Carolina Jessamine. I have it growing around my mailbox too. It is the first thing to bloom here in zone 8, so it is always a welcome sight.

Yep - especially if the flowers smell like baby powder.
