This is the second bloom of an orchid I've had for 3 or 4 years. It was going to develop 3 blossoms on a single inflorescence, but a critter (squirrel?) cut off the double. The fragrance is sweet and heavy. It is a most perfectly symmetrical blossom, which unfortunately the pictures do not quite capture.

I really like this one. I'd say I'm nuts about it, but that might be a little dangerous.
