The color is nice. It can be seen really well, and it looks happy. The plant size is okay, too. But the growth is kind of confused, and the clusters are kind of wonky. I did not find scent either, but it was still spring time.
I feel like Blueberry Hill makes a stronger impact.

I got rid of, lasts one day, thorny, 6 petaled Blueberry Hill after a couple years. Love Song is a phenomenon..like saying Janet makes a better impression than Whitney.

A most floriferous rose (almost unbelievable, freakish)
in in Los Angeles. Huge, petal packed
blooms, big clusters. I bought it despite the weak scent which almost never happens amongst my multiple hundreds of rose purchases. See my photos for verification.

My opinion it has none scent, wondering 4 parents of this rose have strong fragrance. But beautiful color and perfectly form, disease resistant too.

Mine also has almost no scent and the same for this rose in a neighbor's yard. I even use organic fertilizer which usually helps them smell good. Perhaps it is one of those that need cold Winters; we have moderate Winters.

Interesting, thank you. Always great to learn how plant behave in different parts of the world.

Love Song has no fragrance for cold-zoners either. So I don't buy it.

I don't either for the same reason. But I've seen incredibly pictures of this one though!

Crossing fragrant parents often results in a nothingburger fragrance. It's just the way it is. This rose has such nice color, plant size, plant architecture, and foliage. Yet, the no fragrance for this color, and the non-descript form, really bar me from getting this rose.
I am hoping a descendent that resolves these issues crops up in the future.

Violet's Pride is a winner with lavender color.

Unfortunately, VP goes naked by August in my area. I considered trying out Sweet Madame Blue, its sister, but was waiting for further comments by other rosarians. J/P had a few nice mauves (like Perfume Perfection) before it became what it is today, but the color was often that dull tone some mauves have that I hate.
