Per the paper linked below (in Table 4, beginning on the paper's page 28), this rose is triploid. I am cross-posting this comment on all others mentioned which do not already have their ploidies mentioned in their descriptions.

From the 'American Rose Annual' 1940, p37. Mrs. Walter Brashear Price, Mississippi: Southern Old Fashioned Roses. 'Louis Philippe' (1834) This China has deep crimson flowers with fimbriated petals and a spicy scent. Used with us as hedges, windbreaks, and specimens.
I wonder was 'Serratipetala' known as 'Louis Philippe' in the 1930s in Mississippi.

This rose is listed as having no scent yet mine is one of the strongest smelling roses in my garden. Does the 1834 Louis-Philippe have a scent?

Mine is very fragrant too. A sweet, intense "candy" fragrance like 'Old Blush' or 'Cramoisi Supérieur'.
