I don't know a lot about Epiphyllums but always thought E. strictum was a totally different plant, the listing in Plant Files for E. hookeri shows a lot of synonyms but strictum is not one of them: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/2100/

But I found this site: http://www.ecology.org/orchids/index5.html#Epis

If you scroll down the page, there is a listing for E. hookeri and farther down the E. strictum with the description of the plant. This site says E. hookeri is the correct taxonomic name but strictum is a synonym. It also says the blooms are fragrant. My plant bloomed last week with @ 8 blooms opening over a couple of nights. I detect absolutely no fragrance on mine.
