We can't forget Iwan Apple Blossom!
My Phal Fortune Buddah is another...and Den anosum (raspberries!)...and Blc George King 'Serendipity' has such a strong fragrance, it sets off my allergies for days!!!

I've made this thread a "sticky" so it will always be available at the top of the thread list in Beginner Discussions.

I know when my Gongora blossoms open before I see them the sent is so strong but it has more of an earthy smell than a nice fragrence. Zygos are my favorite.

Oncidium Twinkles are really cute and smell a little but not entirely unlike vanilla :biggrin: And Ray is right about the Oncidium Sharry Baby. Anyone who likes a scent in orchids must have this chocolate scented lovely.

I went to the London Orchid Show last weekend and bought Iwanagara Apple Blossom (Blush 11). It's the first orchid I've bought with a fragrance and it smells lovely. ;)
