Well, many love Oncidium Sharry Baby. It is obvious that certain Cattleyas
have a floral scent. Maxillaria tenuifolia smells like coconut. Brassavola
nodosa is the Queen of the Night and Oncidium ornitorhynchum have a
vanilla-soap fragrance.
But there are so many others!
I am looking for tips of other flowering orchids. I know there are
websites
with lists, but I want personal recollection and recommendation here!
I am especially looking for orchids that smell spicy, preferably like
cloves.
Of course it varies between persons and between clones, but as I said, I'm
curious what you think.
Personally I recommend Dendrobium hancockii (strong scent of honey).
That's
my favourite fragrant orchid, I think.
Stanhopea hernandezii smells like hartz (if that is even an english word),
which I like.
What are your favourites?
