Default Thornless roses

Does anyone know of a thornless rose, other than Zephirine Druouhin?
I cut back my ZD hard when I had my fence replaced recently and it
doesn't seem to be showing any new growth.Are there others which are
thornless? I'd like to put another rose further along the fence.
I don't grow anything with thorns, so no other roses, and now with
failing sight it's even more important to me to have one without
thorns but with scent.
Any ideas?

Worth making contact with growers like David Austin Roses and asking your
question of them.
