I, too, have this plant blooming right now and back up the scent-- it's amazing! Not the strongest scent but it is really pleasant.

Hi Tucker, both Phal. Tying Shin Phoenix 'Ember' and Phal. Brother Pepride X Kuntratri Rarishati are fragrant with the latter very, very fragrant with its scent filling a large room when it had just one flower.

Yup...Ember definitely has a scent-- especially in the morning during the "warming" hours-- you know... when you can really feel the heat of the day picking up. The scent can be pretty intense and will fill a room with the scent, easily.
Others I have that are strongly and nicely scented...
Purple Martin
Sunflower
Sogo Lawrence
Schill 'Lavender' (smells like a rose and though its a delicate smell, it will fill a room, too, really lovely).
Spot Eagle 'Montclair'-- a newer one but is very sweet
I'm propagating most of the above phals because they're such strong growers-- lots of blooms on lots of spikes, plus they smell great. Thank God for keiki grow!
Thats about it off the top of my head.
