Well I don't know much about Bulbos, and only have one. Bulbo lasiochilum - quite small, supposed to be an easy grower - very moderate light, keep moist. I have only had it about 6 months, so haven't yet bloomed it, but it is supposed to smell like strawberries. I just don't know about growing in a pot as it really 'rambles' - I suppose it could be in a pot, but I am sure it would ramble all over just the same with time.

I'm sure others will have more ideas for you

Bulb. alagense
Bulb. laxiflorum
Bulb. tixieri

Keep in mind that not all Bulbos and Cirrhopetalums smell bad from a distance. For many of them, you start smelling their stench if you intentionally put your nose right up to the flowers.

Bulbophyllum ambrosia is also nice - as the name implies, the scent is sweet, like honey. Small and pretty easy to grow, as well!

I really like Bulbo Daisy Chain. I grow mine in a shallow plastic healthy choice steamer tray. You know, the one that has the slotted tray on the inside with the outer tray....it works perfect with a bark mixture! It does tend to ramble, but I think most Bulbo's ramble! Oh and it doesn't smell at all
