Phalaenopsis Memoria Audrey Meldman 'Mendenhall'
I haven't posted photos of any of my plants in a while. Here is a photo of my Phal Memoria Audrey Meldman 'Mendenhall', second bloom of a seedling I purchased from Carter & Holmes a few years ago.
The first bloom was a couple years ago, I didn't notice a fragrance back then. This year, the flowers are distinctly daytime-fragrant, a nice sweet smell, but not overly strong. The blooms are quite waxy.

Nice shape and color. Looks pretty flat too - congrats on the flowering.

First blooms are not "definitive", color, form, and why not smell can change. Plus you may have missed the temperature or light or hour needed to smell some fragrance.
(Working back on my fragrant orchid list btw  |
