I agree. I'm about to pull it. It has no scent, I don't care what they named it. This rose by any other name would have no scent.

Hi! Just out of curiosity, have you ever had your genes sequenced? For example, by 23AndMe.com? If you have, you can run it through the Promethase engine (https://promethease.com/ondemandlicense) and it will tell you if you have a genetic variant that disallows you to smell β-ionone, a floral fragrance. I have this variation (in rs6591536, also known as N183D or Asn183Asp) and a lot of the roses that some people say are very fragrant, such as JFK, smell like plain old florist roses to me. On the other hand, I can still enjoy roses like Chrysler Imperial, Mr. Lincoln, Angel Face, and Julia Child.
It would be very interesting to me if this is the case, you might have just saved me from spending a lot of money on a rose I can't smell.

Mine is definitely highly fragrant. Even in raining 55F weather, it is.

"The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of a hybrid tea rose plant named `JAChonew` which was originated by me by crossing an unnamed, unpatented pink hybrid seedling, (`JAColite` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,167).times.`KORlingo` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 5,846)) with the variety `MACgenev` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,279). "
