The rose is perfumed but I can't smell much on any of the lilies at the moment - and I know they're a mix of Asiatic and Oriental.

My first thought on seeing it was Asiatic as I always think they spread out falter than Orientals, no matter what type it is its a good looking flowerit may be a struggle to reach the top, but once your over the hill your problems start.
