Name That Rose!

Yet another nameless red rose...

It is strongly scented of lemon and BS free.

Any ideas?

I don't know about BS, but it reminds me of the ever-popular Mister Lincoln, which is highly fragrant. I'll put a link to photos:

I have a friend in San Francisco who waxes ecstatic over Mr Lincoln. I have heard it is a very fine rose... maybe one day, I will see how it does in TN. The parents of Mr. Licoln (Chrysler Imperial x Charles Mallerin) are also the parents of two other velvety red roses...Oklahoma & Papa Meilland. Make the story short, my roses foliage didn't match Mr Lincolns, but I think I found its' identity...Guinee by Charles Mallerin 1938. Odd how things go round circle in that way. The rose 'Charles Mallerin' is actually by Meilland, though. I researched all this thinking they all had common ancestry...couldn't find evidence of that.
