ARS registration says no fragrance, Australian Trial report "moderate" fragrance. What is now correct?

For the perfume assessors to score Purple Glow as they did, the rose definitely has some fragrance. The moderate result is clearly better than none or slight. While fragrance is subjective, I usually find all roses have something, even if it is just vegetative notes. I will check next time Purple Glow crosses my path.
