Perpetual flowering over a very long season. Very little to no fragrance (here).

Do you if this is near thornless? Or lacks a great deal of thorns?
Or if it's used in mass plantings at malls and other places like plazas? This spring, I was run over by a car and it knocked me several feet into my mall's landscape. Next thing I know, I'm bloody and my blood covered this white rose. I believe this is the same rose that I saw planted in mass a Las Vegas.
I've fully recovered but I've propogated the very same rose that I saw before I became unconcious and I REALLY want to identify it. I think this maybe the very same rose because the foilage looks just right. Thick and shiny.

Sorry, I have only just come across your question by chance. As far as thorns, or prickles as someone corrected, are concerned, this is not the fiercest in my garden. There are thorns, and I often get caught on them! And I certainly wouldn't like to fall into the rosebushes. But it isn't the worst. The leaves are not as thick and shiny as on some roses. Has your cutting flowered? Would you have a photo of it?

My cutting has rooted, but it will be flowering next year.
I can, however, post pics of the several plants at the mall. To me, it looks like this rose because it has extraordinarily thick and shiny foliage.
I once thought this was Iceberg, but it's just not right. I know Iceberg gets planted in mass at certain areas but this one looks much more like Carte Blanche.
What I like about this rose, other than its pure white flowers, is its relatively thornless nature.
Thank you, I will take pics soon.
Bye...
