Without its flowers to narrow down, I’m wondering maybe something in the Osmanthus genus? Check out the included link below for a cultivar in the holly osmanthus/holly olive (Osmanthus heterophyllus ‘Purpureus’. If this isn’t of the genus, when it blooms please resubmit with photo of flowers. Best wishes! https://jcra.ncsu.edu/resources/photographs/details.php?serial=419639
