Default Bulb sp needs ID

Hi Everyone
I picked up this Bulb species a couple of months ago at a local plant sale. Its come into bloom for me now, but I have no idea as to who she might be? The flowers are very small, maybe an 1/8" wide, pale creamy yellow with thin red stripes. Scent is hard to describe, not pleasant, but not completely unpleasant either, almost spice-like.
Hoping someone can ID from the pictures, which I know are not great but being so small I had a tough time getting a clear shot.

Thanks!

I don't know anything about bulbophyllums, but there are a lot of species pictures on this site.

Hi Laura
rufinum looks pretty close but my flowers are spaced much closer together on the inflorescence, than rufinum is. Not too sure how much variation there would be with that but...
