I wonder if anyone has compared this rose to 'Belle Amour', which is technically a foundling from the 20th Century.

I think that Graham Thomas did. SeeThe Graham Stuart Thomas Rose Book, the last line on p48. He lists both "Belle Amour" and 'Celeste' on the same page. Just right now I cannot see any wood for all the (rose) trees, but I am sure the brain will start to kick in later in the day (we hope!)

The brain still hasn't even started to kick in on this one. All I can do is note that HelpMefind has two files with some very similar names:
File 26895. Descemet, 1815. Very double
Aurora (alba, Descemet, 1815
Belle Aurore (Hybrid Alba, Descemet, 1815) - registered name
Belle Aurore Poniatowska
Ex albo rosea variete (alba, Descemet, pre 1815)
Purpurascens
Royale Aurora
File 59286. Unknown Dutch breeder, Netherlands, 1800. Semi-double. (file contains Redoute's pix)
Belle Aurore (hybrid alba, unknown, pre 1800)
Ex albo Rosea
Rosa alba Purpurescens
Rosa damascena aurora Thory
Rosier Aurore Poniatowska
