well, actually it's quite bad I want to throw away if it wasn't for the color.

Really? How can something so lovely smell so bad?

Maybe smells like purple cough syrup and he had bad spells during childhood!

Very nice flowers

Are you ready? Here I go!

That's what I'm saying.
But then again, some people might find it pleasing.
I mean it's not horrible like some coelogyen I had in the past, but it's not something I'd grow for fragrance.

This thing must have its smell gene fixed turned on because the scent is there all day and all night. lol
The good thing is that it is not that strong and you have to get very close to it to detect it. Nothing like Sharry Baby or B. nodosa. thank goodness. hahaha

It does smell sort of like cough syrup for kids.
It is sweet but there is this nasty chemical bitterness at the end note.

Ahh, that's enough to cause a negative reaction... I had to use that stuff many times when younger

The smell cant be worse than one of my stanhopeas (part Wardii) that smelt like cough syrup crossed with pineapple and warfarin!

 

[Happypaphy7]

I love pineapple, but have never smelled warfarin yet. lol
sounds pretty exotic.
