V. bensonii was my initial guess as well, but it doesn't match up to it. I know there is such a thing as species variation, but there is something about your Vanda's flower that doesn't scream out that it really is a variant of V. bensonii. I'm thinking that there is a discernible difference between the labellum of the flower to your orchid compared to that of V. bensonii. The wings of the labellum on your orchid and V. bensonii match, but not the rest of the lip, which makes me believe your Vanda is a hybrid of V. bensonii and possibly V. ustii, idk. Or maybe it's a hybrid of V. bensonii and possibly V. tessellata.
