Hmmm, only a little bit of fragrance on this one here. Anytime they name something "Parfuma," I expect better. Marketing!

Agreed ... nice rose, but it's like the perfume didn't make it through customs.

Mine has a strongly developed plant now, so I'm going to see if having a larger root system has an affect on the fragrance or not (it does in some damask HTs). I'll try to remember to report back.

What is a "damask HT"?

I think Michael means HTs with Damask scent.

Sorry Damask HT is basically the darker red types with damask fragrance, or at least referred to as damask fragrance even if its not lol.

Tested the scent today. If I REALLY bury my nose in there, its moderate fragrance. The plant is very nice, and the blooms are pretty, but labeling it Parfuma is a stretch by Kordes in my opinion.

The soil has adequate water. The plant is healthy and robust. The blooms are large and full. The weather has been cool mornings and mid-80s afternoons. So there is no real reason for it not to be fragrant. I just think Kordes overstated the strength of scent. Or maybe they're really sensitive to that type of scent.

For those reading, I'd still buy it again. It looks romantic and its very healthy. But don't expect it to blow your nose away lol.

Edit: Days later, I tested it again. It rained yesterday and has been cool. Today, it was dry, cool and overcast. The scent was moderate and peach scented. As in the scent of cut peaches.
