The flower scent of this species can vary from plant to plant to an extreme degree. Main components of the trapped scents (9-11.30 am) were benzyl acetate (37.4-61.0%), benzyl benzoate (9.5-20.1%), methyl eugenol (5.7-6.2%), eugenol (0.2-9.5%), elemicine (3.1-5.4%), benzyl alcohol (1.4-2.6%), cinnamic alcohol (0.1-1.6%), phenylethyl alcohol (0.1-2.3%), phenylethyl acetate (0.4-1.4%), and (Z)-3-hexenol (0.2-0.6%). \\ | The flower scent of this species can vary from plant to plant to an extreme degree.

"One group is characterised by an pronounced //'spicy-floral'// scent, attributable primarly to eugenol and cinnamic alcohol, whereas the //'aromatic-floral'// aspects of benzyl acetate predominate in the other group." While the scent of plants of some low-lying biotopes may show the waxy and slightly metallic aspects of capric acid and lauric acid, the scent of certain small alpine types have a definite vanilla note (pronounced in the scent of [[Gymnadenia odoratissima (L.) Rich.]]). \\ | "One group is characterised by an pronounced //'spicy-floral'// scent, attributable primarly to eugenol and cinnamic alcohol, whereas the //'aromatic-floral'// aspects of benzyl acetate predominate in the other group."
