Can you ID my favorite mystery pink/lavender?

This is the one rose in my garden where I don't know the name or origin. It was already mature 20 years ago when we moved in. The other roses in the garden were standard issue roses (Mon Cheri, Sarabande, JFK etc), so I don't think it is an OGR but it should be an heirloom! I've never seen one exactly like it.

I keep my roses big- this one is standing over 6' tall. No new canes in around 10 years, but it marches along.

Beautiful buds, opening to somewhat flat and frilled lavender-pink blossoms, held slightly drooping down, intensely fragrant. Stops people on the street- WOW scent.
