Default Bulbo 'No Clue'

This bulbo was one of the plants that was acquired on our group outing to Louis' a few weeks back. Louis wasn't sure what it was so I need some help!

I'm pretty sure it's a species but there's no telling which one. The flowers (really really tiny flowers) are extremely fragrant...it's sweet like a nadosa....

Thanx for looking!

I am wondering if it is ruffinum ?!
I already have couple and the plant looks similar, but the ones that I currently have are more red than yellow, but when I looked it up on orchidspecies, it shows the flowers as yellow similar to yours ...

Agree with Laura. It does look like B. ruffinum.
It is the flowering season now and I saw some in bloom while visting a local nursery last week.

Can you get a closeup picture of the bloom?

Here's another guess:
