Does not appear to be Chinatown.
The colours, form, leaflets, and prickles are all incorrect for this variety.
This appears to be Frühlingsduft.
Any enthusiast with eyes that work may cross-reference the images of both varieties and arrive at this proper conclusion.
Insisting it's something it's not is dishonest.

Chinatoen is a deep yellow, however, checking some of the photos posted here, one sees blooms with a flush of pink, posted by members from Denmark, Estonia, Sweden. A possibility is that a different clone is commercialized in this region, not identical to the true Chinatown, or of course, it is a climate effect.

jedmar, thanks for your comment!
All you write is correct, there are many things that can affect appearance of a rose like you describe.

MiGreen Thumb, thanks for your comments!
This plant was bought as 'Chinatown' long long ago.
But I am not dishonest!!
Therefore I do as you say and change the name to 'Frühlingsduft', since you are the expert of us two

Every nursery I've bought from has had mislabels.
