This is a phrag besseae (slipper orchid). Not fragrant to my memory, Michael.

I am posting a photo (not me in the picture!) which shows a RED Bulbo. which won 1st prize in a contest. Someone said it is a "Bulbo. Phalaenopsis"
(smelly flower) which I'm afraid is incorrect after some research. Can anyone help identify it? Many thanks in advance.
Cheers, Michael

Was this at an actual orhid show? Can't see how any judge could have screwed that one up so badly. No it is not a bulbo. It is a Phragmipedium. Could be Phrag besseae or one of its many many hybrids.
Looks like BD was "quicker on the draw' than myself.
Thank you very much both of you! Mystery solved...
Cheers, Michael
yuppers it could be phragmipedium don wimber
