The link epiphyte78 posted, which has photos of naturalized orchids in gardens, is a great resource.n Fragrant orchids which I would suggest would be
Oncidium Sharry Baby
Phalaenopsis bellina
Maxillaria tenuifolia
Stanhopea nigroviolacea
Dendrobium speciosum (many varieties to chose from)
Dendrobium anosmum
Vanda tricolor
Cattleya jenmanii
Cattleya aclandiae
Encyclia Orchid Jungle
Rhynchostylis gigantea


For nocturnally fragrant orchids, look for ones with (usually) spurred white flowers such as:
Brassavola nodosa
Angraecum (practically any species)
Aerangis
Epidendrum nocturnum
