I'd like a VERY fragrant iris - any color or shape.

Hi, Stanley.
Lots of us like the older ones and the fragrant ones and especially the
fragrant older ones. Not to be forward, but what decade was it when you
formed your Proustian impressions of irises? If we know that we can work
backward, figure out a couple of good recommendations and tell you where to
shop for them.
