John,
If you do not mind older irises and subdued colors, there is a selected
form of Iris pallida known as ODORATISSIMA (Jacquin, 1797) that has the
typical sweet pallida scent, but to a much more intense degree than in the
standard species form. It is available from Iris Colorado (Lowell Baumunk)
