Lc. Joćo Antonio Nicoli 'Velvet' HCC/AOS
Old hybrid of excellent color and intense perfume. The lip is velvety and very dark. The flowers are normally a little larger than they appear in the photo. My plant is a young meristem flowering for the first time (this is one of those 'must have' classic Cattleya; so, meristemed plants are periodically put on the market here in Brazil).

I'm not overly fond of the floofy catts but this is surely an exception. I love it! The color is amazing.  |

It's amazing and that's just a fact!
What sort of fragrance does it have?
My work buddy, Diane, has a new orchid C. 'Secret Love', I believe is the name. Quiltergal, it's a floofy one too but has a really interesting fragrance. We've been sniffing it off and on through out the work day, trying to sort out what ALL we are detecting within its very heady and complex mingling of fragrances.
So far, we've come up with a short list: peaches, a tiny hint of lemon,lots of roses, a tiny bitter top note of lavender and that fakey smell of powered grape Koolaid. lol

Gwen, I went to smell it now to see if I can say something about its perfume. I'd say I noticed cloves, lavender and some other sweet thing I can't imagine what . |
