Interesting rose. Would love to see it as a mature plant in the ground. Foliage, buds, and bloom remind me of something halfway between a silvery mauve miniflora (like Sweet Arlene, for example) and 'Trier'.
Edit: Ahhh, not too far off. One parent is a purple floribunda bred from minis, and the other parent is a modern rambler, with small, semi-double Dortmund-like blooms.

I'm growing this rose, it's slow to get going and likes getting fed (greedy wee thing), but it's blooms are lovely and it has the most unique and sweet fragrance.

Tidbits for those interested. Delbard lists this rose (same breeder code) as "The rose that inspired the fragrance of Shiseido." It lists it as a floribunda with a height of 1.5 to 2 m (6.5 feet). I'm growing it as a climber. https://www.georgesdelbard.com/A-16546-rosier-rose-synactif-by-shiseido-le-rosier-tige.aspx Note: Synactif is a beauty care line from Shiseido combining skin care and fragrance.

Hi Cori, I was just wondering how you were getting on growing Synactif as a climber? I'd like a nice lilac climbing rose for my wall, but trying to find an alternative to Climbing Blue Moon, which is prone to blackspot. Thanks, Stephi

I'm wondering if Madame Alfred Carrièrecan be grown as a large shrub? Thank you.

I have only ever grown it on a strong supporting structure, something it seems to need because it makes such long growth, and I can't recall seeing it grown as a shrub or hedge. I haven't tried to keep it lower or more compact but perhaps others have and will be able to advise how it responded.

Thank you for sharing your experience. It does sound like it needs support.

When I was living in San Diego 25 years ago there was a huge free standing MAC in the Quail botanical garden. The plant must have been many decades old and really impressed me with its size and its attractive overall shape.
