I saw a bed of these at the Queen Mary’s garden in Regent’s Park, London, today. The scent was delicious and very strong (administrators might like to change the description on that point - several others commented here that the scent is strong). The bloom form seemed unremarkable, to me: it was neither a variant of the rounded bloom form of Austin roses, nor high-centred, but an unhappy combination of the two - kind of chalice-shaped with a bull-nose. If space in my garden was not a concern, I would still overlook this and get myself a plant to enjoy the scent.

I'm so happy that I purchased this not so well knowing rose. Caroline Victoria is a very elegant looking flower. It grows a little slower, but that's no big deal for me because the petals stay really long in form. The blooms are really pretty formed, because the center petals don't open fully until the very end, forming a rounded dome. It's also really interesting to see the formation of the blooms. The first peeks of the petals look pale green-yellow. After that the outer petals are beige and the inner petals more or less yellow-peach. When it fully opens there are even some pink peaks on the rims of the inner petals. And for the cherry on the top, the scent of Caroline Victoria really reminds on raspberries like stated in the description.
