Consider me called out. In my defense I was looking a bit lower than your user title
But then consider this description of that particular orchid:

Quote:
dracula simia is the scientific name for the Monkey Orchid, which was discovered in 1978 by a guy named Luer. The flower is famous for smelling like oranges, and is not to be confused with a different species of flower also referred to as the "Monkey Orchid." (The latter is famous for smelling like feces. Literally. It smells like somebody defecated. It is purple, though.)

Hopefully if you go looking for the Monkey Orchid you'll find the right one!
Gardenia sniffing, on the other hand, could go on forever with a side of lotus.
