The rose known as Triomphe du Luxembourg is incorrect here and elsewhere.  It may be Rhodologue Jules Gravereaux (Tea x HT).

Overseas, this striking rose ["Triomphe du Luxembourg" in commerce] has been equated with 'Rhodologue Jules Gravereaux' (Lowery & Robinson 2006). 'Rhodologue Jules Gravereaux' was bred in 1908 by the Brazilian Dr. Joachim Fontes from the Tea 'Marie Van Houtte' crossed with 'Mme Abel Chatenay', an early Hybrid Tea which has likenesses in colour and form to the rose known today as 'Triomphe du Luxembourg'.

L. Arthur Wyatt was the last editor of the English periodical The Rose, which facilitated an international tracing service for roses no longer in commerce through a regular column named 'Lost and Found'. After The Rose ceased publication in 1969, Wyat continued this tracing work privately....By 1975, Wyatt was offering 136 cultivars...but ill health brought his enterprise to a halt. Most of his records were discarded and the rose collection was lost. It was reassembled in Castle Howard by James Russell, and the efforts of nurseryman Peter Beales saw much of Wyatt's collection reurned to commerce...

Teas...Rhodologue Jules Gravereaux Good, reliable rebloom. Outstanding fragrance. ...robust Tea, which tends to produce many tall basal canes, beginning stout and then branching inti twiggier wood above.
This came to us as Triomphe du Luxembourg, which it was not. It bears a most beautifully formed flower that reminds me of La France, with more substance to the petals, making a blossom that holds extremely well both on the plant and as a cut flower. This is an early Hybrid Tea by parentage.

'Rhodologue Jules Gravereaux' Issue de 'Marie van Houtte' x 'Madame Abel Chatenay', cette variété fut obtenue en 1908, par le Docteur Joaquim Fontes, un amateur brésilien, Celui-ci la dédia au fondateur de la Roseraie de L'Haÿ, laquelle, à cette date, n'était d'ailleurs pas encore achevée. Une belle variété rose nuancé jaune, malheureusement très peu commercialisée de nos jours.

....in the California Mother Lode country......
There was another rose in this delightful garden, with handsome foliage, big black thorns, and vigorous growth, still healthy after forty years. It had a large, double pink, very fragrant bloom and went by the name of Beauty of Luxembourg, a name not to be found in my rose library. Could it be the 'Triomphe de Luxembourg' sent out in 1836? There was none to answer, and I was left again with that uncomfortable feeling of ignorance as to the identity of a rose that is familiar to every true rosarian.
