Love this species with its pendant glaucous leathery foliage,

The juxtaposition of these two plants - one of nature's most beautifully fragrant orchid species right next to one of its nastiest - is amusing.
 
I didn't know the Masdie was fragrant. Thanks for sharing.

Different conditions seem to trigger different levels of "fragrance", ranging anywhere from patchouli to rotting corpse. It's not as pervasive as some bulbos, but get close enough and it becomes obvious.
