Nice group!
I was wondering which ones might be fragrant?

Hmmm. I'm not good at describing fragrances. They are all fragrant but not over powering. Oconee is the strongest. Oconee and Love Triangle are more sweet while the other one is more typical Cattleya scented.

Carter and Holmes sold mericlones of BLC Oconee 'Mendenhall' this spring but I missed them.

Yes in the Spring 2015 catalog they had tissue cultured plants for $20 for a 2.5" pot. They also had a division available from the original plant for $5,000.

I've heard Oconee described as having a spicy fragrance but I don't smell it.

Here's another picture with better lighting along with individual pictures and I'm throughing in a couple of Chocolate Drops, 'Kodoma' and 'Volcano Queen'. Kodoma was open a week before Volcano Queen so the flowers may be larger and faded.
