Some sort of Oleaceae, possibly Abeliophyllum distichum (White forsythia) or a Chionanthus (such as C. retusus)? Or possibly an Osmanthus?

All of the above, however, are temperate; I don't know many tropical Oleaceae.

SoCal and SoFla; zone varies by location.

On second look, this could be some sort of Apocyanaceae as well. Notice any milky sap (Could be clear or white). Lots of tropical species in this family. (Though I don't recognize this.)
