Hello! Can someone pls help me identify this rose?
We've had this rose for several years, my late father had planted the original one so it's very special to me. It wasn't growing a lot in size, i suspected because it was under the shade of a big tree. So few winters back, i moved it to a sunnier location, but unfortunately it did not survive :(
- It has a very strong musky smell
- It blooms one strong bloom in May and then much weaker ones later (i suspected because of the shade but maybe not)
- It survives snowy winters
Your help is greatly appreciated!

Is the colour right for Friesia?

Thank you so much! Friesia seems to be the closest i have ever seen to it :)
The color seems to be a bit softer/darker on the yellow side in our rose - and is it for sure a Floribunda from our photo?
any other potential guesses?
Super thanks!!

Photos can be misleading, but compared to my BB, the yellow looks a little too saturated. Also, BB definitely likes to climb, even under a tree. Mine is cohabitating well in the branches of a small dogwood

Golden Jubilee (hybrid tea, pre 2014) is my guess, but I really don't know if this Australian rose ever got to Germany.
An actual planting year, rather than "several years ago" might help you eliminate some contenders.

Thank you, it was planted i would say more than 20 years ago! not sure it's golden jubilee as it doesn't have those pink hews on the sides of the petals.

thank you! i believe there's two 'versions' of Buff Beauty - the Climber and the Shrub.
