Yes, it has a very nice fragrance. I should have mentioned that.

I have to say that it is one of the most beautiful phals I've seen! Mind you, I love flowers that flame like this one. I have 2 white ones that were given to me that I would gladly trade.

That's one of the best orange phals I've seen! I love the dark lip, too! It makes the red/orange color range show up more than the pink/lavender that subtract from other artshades (at least in my opinion. Hey, if I want orange, it had better LOOK orange! )

FWIW - Your flower is beautiful but it is mislabeled. It is likely one of the mass produced Phal Brother Sara Gold. It's unfortunate that Phal Brother Sara Gold is sold as Phal Zuma Aussie Delight and/now Phal Sweet Memory 'Bubbles'.
You can tell the differences by flower size and fragrance. Phal Sweet Memory has Phal Deventeriana in the background, flower size is larger at 7+ cm and fragrance is amazing because of Phal bellina (then called Phal violacea). Phal Brother Sara Gold type has Phal Sara Lee 'Eye Dee' - not as fragrant and has smaller flowers at about 6 cm.
