NOT strongly scented!
If you want scent, get Blanc Double de Coubert.
It is so white it glows in the dark and has the strongest scent!

Interesting. I found it to be medium to strong in the specimen I encountered in my local city.
I bet it's a sensitivity of individual noses and/or their ability to pick up on various compounds that make up scents.
Blanc Double de Coubert holds onto nasty old blooms
as they rot like discoloured, used tissues though...

my Blanc is dependable, not an issue with spent bloom. One of the fast cold front crashes nearly did it in a few years back. Fimbriata is part rugosa, part noisette. I don't know a lot of noisettes.
She is scentless but reliable. Its from Sequoia, that says something for Ralph Moore's nursery AND the cultivar.
I grow Snowden and that is part noisette and it did make it through the horrible gypsy moth infestation a few years back with concerted beheading of caterpillars a few years back. I can't say it has good scent but again, lacks scent despite being rugosda/noisette.
