"Vine View Dk Red Purple" I would like to make a new file for this rose. Alerted to this garden in Williamstown, South Australia by the owner in April 2014. At first I thought it was a HP but not so sure now. This cutting grown plant is in some shade and is regularly watered with rainwater and fertilised

Reminds me a bit of Souvenir du Docteur Jamain. (See my post of may 6 2017 for that rose)

Thank you Jay-Jay many of the descriptions of 'Souvenir du Dr. Jamain' fit this rose. Perfume I would rate higher though.

I would rate it (much) higher too, as You might read in one comment for that rose. Lots of people, that visit our garden, fell as a block for this rose, mainly due to the scent, but to the color, the ability to grow in the (partial) shade and the (almost) lack of prickles too. It stands at the entrance of our garden to be sniffed regularly, when flowering... and that's what I do.
PS: Members rate the scent as excellent too. Maybe an idea to rate scent in: - absent - faint - present - strong - very strong - overwhelming
