Name That Plant!

Can anyone identify this rhody?

15 years ago

This is a rescued rhody. It had been in a pot it's whole life and was tossed out by a neighbor who couldn't remember what the name was. Last year, I planted it and it had no flowers. This year it's beautiful and full of buds. The couple that are open are very fragrant. The leaves are dark green, highly textured and fuzzy on the underside. Did I mention fragrant? They remind me of Hawaii. I hope someone out there can tell me the name.
