Very pretty cold pink with lavender shade, mild to strong fragrance with hints of myrrh and fruits, flowers don’t burn in the sun but seem to be somewhat damaged by rain

Responding further to the Website Omissions comment today.
Thanks Mr. anonymous-382123. I found a couple of references to it but with not much information.
Although one of the references called it 'Princess Claire', I have added a synonym of 'Princesse Claire' as well as the name you mentioned 'Prinses Claire'.
I am not sure which Bonica was the seed parent. Do you know?
Bonica ® (floribunda, Meilland, 1958) or
Bonica ® (shrub, Meilland, 1982)
Do you know the class of the rose? A shrub, or floribunda?
And I have taken the liberty of moving your photos to the 'Princesse Claire' page.
Thank you for helping HelpMefind.

I am having trouble with this one Martin.
I don’t know how a rose can have three names.
I can find no Registration in the Modern Roses 12 Database for VISbonpa
But I can find a listing for ‘Princess Claire de Belgique’ and have added this as a 2016 reference. This reference is attributing a “shrub” to Spek.
