"The Perfume of the Rose" By E. M. Holmes, FLS, FES
Since attempts will doubtless be made to imitate the perfume of the most popular scented roses, it may be of interest to direct attention to those in the several groups which are remarkable for their sweetness:
Of the Hybrid Perpetual or Damask rose group, the greatest favourite is, perhaps, General Jacqueminot [...] Victor Hugo is a similar rose, which flowers freely in the autumn. Other sweet-scented roses of this group are Alfred Colomb, Heinrich Schultheiss, Hugh Dickson, Lady Helen Stewart, Madame Victor Verdier, Oscar Cardel and Madame Isaac Pereire, Horace Vernet, Maurice Bernardin, Pierre Notting, Eugene Furst and Abel Carriere.

Hybrides Remontants. Groupe E. — Général Jacqueminot
Les rosiers formant ce groupe, le plus important de tous, sont des arbustes de végétation vigoureuse, très florifères et portant beaucoup à fruit. Rameaux allongés, généralement gris; aiguillons nombreux, crochus; feuillage vert foncé, folioles ovales; floraison le plus souvent en corymbe; fleur forme en coupe ou chiffonnée, frisée, quelquefois globuleuse, coloris du rouge clair au pourpre noirâtre; fruits abondants, de forme plutôt arrondie.

Hybrid Perpetuals.
Abel Carrière (Verdier, 1875). — Of uncertain growth. Often makes strong secondary shoots, yet refuses to grow strongly in the spring. Foliage second-rate, and rather liable to mildew and orange fungus. The blooms often "come" bad: not "divided", but malformed and "anyhow": as a rule a small percentage only arrive at perfection. Not particularly good in petal: but the true shape, partly imbricated, is good when you get it. Beautiful colour, one of the really dark ones: a fair bloom to last, but not of the largest size. Like many of the dark Roses it requires hot, dull, dry weather, and in some seasons the petals will burn, i.e. turn brown, but I am doubtful if this is actually caused by the sun. Rain is more or less hurtful to all Rose-blooms, but the dark H.P.s, and this among them, will stand it as well as any. It cannot be called a free-bloomer, a good autumnal, or an early Rose: in fact it should only be grown by exhibitors.
