Very strongly scented.

Looks like C. moschata to me as the labellum tip isn't tightly outrolled and the red doesn't extend as far up the labellum as I would expect in C. cucullata.

@MattM fair enough. More heavily marked than the moschata in the Flat, hence my confusion. One day I may ACTUALLY find cucullata...
