This is blooming at the moment. It will be getting re-potted and divided once blooms are finished. I'm not sure I like this 'Spotted Star' cultivar as much as 'Mayumi' or 'Louise'. And I cannot detect any scent on it. It has 8 spikes in various stages of development, but most are open with 3 blooms each.

Gorgeous flowers! If you gave it more humidity the fragrance would manifest especially after dusk....

Thanks all for looking.

Bud, our house is around 40 to 45% humidity and I checked morning and evening, but no scent. Not even in the greenhouse where it was around 55% before I brought it in to enjoy. That's OK, I have other scented ones in bloom.

How old is that thing?? lol

Bud, I think your plant is perhaps the same cultivar as this instead of Mayumi because yours look just like this one posted here.

I got it from H & R in 2011. It had about 20 growths then.
