I am posting a comment on behalf of John Nieuwesteeg that he is convinced the rose in commerce as Cherub is actually Blush Rambler. He used to grow it and got his bud wood via Trevor Nottle.

It is good that he has the provenance and good to hear his thoughts. These ‘Cherub’ contenders are difficult. I favour ‘Apple Blossom’ because of its 1936 reference which quoted “ruffled petals”. Here is what I grow as at Dec 3, 2021 and the provenance is Melville Nursery->. Del Bibby (at a 2004 HRiA cutting day and came as Cherub)->. Ros-O-SW.
