If the backround colour is pure white, as for the photo displayed by Rosie, it is a Vanda tricolor var suavis.
It was previously considered as a valid species as Vanda suavis, so Vanda suavis is a synonym of Vanda tricolor var. suavis.
Most of Vanda tricolor var suavis seen in collections are pure white but flowers with cream or yellowish coloured backround can be found.

The flowers of the type species, Vanda tricolor, are not pure white, most of the time with cream or yellowish backround.

In other words, when the plant will bloom if the colour of the backround is pure white as the photo displayed by Rosie it is a Vanda tricolor var suavis (synonym Vanda suavis) if not you will have to check for elements such as lip, petals and sepals shapes to make sure if it is the type species, Vanda tricolor, or the suavis variety.
