Yeah, they are one of the most common wild orchids here in Costa Rica. The self-pollination is kind of annoying. Many won't even open the flower, selfing before the petals even unfurl. But if they open, the flower should last for 4-7 days if they don't get pollinated.
I don't think they are all fragrant, as the ones in my area are not.
They are pretty adaptable with heaviest flowering in nearly full sun and ample water without getting waterlogged. But they do well even when they are are in the shade and will survive a month without water without problems.
