Nice link, Dorothy!
I love Stanhopeas and their fragrances, but in my opinion Cattleya schroderae has the most delicious fragrance amongst all orchids!
Amongst the stinkers the my #1 is Bulbophylum fletcherianum (rotten flesh)

By the way, the book Fragrant Orchids by Steven A. Frowine is a lot more complete and covers 'chids not on this list. I have it, and it's a must-have, in my opinion. Sorry to jack the thread but thought I'd offer this in the interest of helping out  |
