It looks like a Hyacinth. If the folige when bruised smells like onions it may be an Allium.
Buds look far too big for hyacinth. Hyacinth bulbs are also generally nearer spherical and seldom completely without colour entirely.
Allium seems unlikely but possible, although quite a few closely realted bulbs (Tulbaghia for instance, which this isn't), smell of onions/garlic.
I am not familiar with the plants except in photo's, but maybe chincherinchee?
