Phal. Tying Shin Cupid 'Montclair'
It's supposed to be fragrant, but it doesn't seem to be. I guess I need to keep checking at different times of day. |

Love it!!! The colors are beautiful and it makes a really nice art shade. Did the buds just open? If so, sometimes it takes a few days before they'll be fragrant. If they've been open a while, like you said, check a few times a day. If all else fails, I find putting them in the sun, like through a window or similar for a bit will coax their fragrance out.
I have a similar one... but named Tying Shin Smart. Your's is WAY cooler. Shin Smart has a light fragrance mid day.

Thanks everyone, for your kind words. And, Ryan, not to be an enabler, but I see that this is on sale over at Norman's. You can collect your commission on your Ember.  |

Have you seen their Tying Shin Eros??? Similar in color to yours but it has equestris in it-- looks like a very small plant. I really am liking these art shades.

No, Ryan, I haven't. Freaking enabler... 
Edited to add: oh yes, I had seen it before. But thanks to you, Ryan, when I did a search on "Tying Shin" I found several I hadn't...

Ryan, I took your advice and have been checking this for scent a few times a day. Today I finally got its scent. Very subtle, but very nice.
