Truly nice one, Bruno! Love it.
I did try to find during last three years very similar specie, namely Catasetum naso. But still can’t find it …..

Steve I am pretty bad describing fragances but it is a kind of menthol with licorice.
Thanks Gena and Ramon, this catasetum is very similar to naso, also I am trying to find one.
