I got 6 of these, sold in my 'hood' as Duchess of Cornwall. From bare root in spring they are up to 2.5 to 3 feet high and have never been out of bloom and are still blooming. The barest trace of fragrance, occasionally .
I've since seen them growing in a garden in Russia as climbers, like a gigantic shrub from 8 to 10 feet ????. All of these plants have skipped everything, BS, mildew, no wind scorch either. I'm in a coastal location and Gertrude Jekyll gets badly dried and brittle leaves but Chippendale is a super performer. Fingers crossed for the icing on the cake, fragrance, maybe next year

Tantau rates it as 5-star in fragrance, but according to a lot of rose growers I met, it have little fragrance, which doubts me...

May be time of day or conditions?
I mean Dagmar Hastrup is apparently a strong clove...which is sort of true for maybe an hour in the morning then it's basically no fragrance here. Rise N Shine is listed as strong fragrance...I've smelt nothing from it over several years of growing it.

I smell "Chippendale" in different occassions, nurseries, gardens, exhibitions, but I never get a "strong" smell....
the same applies to "Augusta Luisse", which is also claimed to be very fragrant one.
It's so tricky....because I can get the fragrance from other ones like "double delight",“golden celebration”,“fragrant cloud” ,"eclair" everytime I met them....
