They're very different plants and very different tone of red. Unfortunately, if you live in a rainy area, Rouge Royale's blooms collect water and then rot. If you don't, its not a problem.
I prefer 'Allegorie', but I know some really love 'Munstead Wood' for the blooms alone. I prefer to avoid Austin roses. They often come with a price too annoying to deal with. Often size, water requirements, dropping, slow rebloom and other issues I'm just not willing to deal with anymore. I know MW is on the better side of these problems, but I have heard it can mildew. You may also like 'Ebb Tide' or 'Twilight Zone', if youre into the more purple aspect of 'Munstead Wood'.

Valentina Cassucci was an Argentine gardener and landscaper. She curated the Palermo Rose Garden for several years and mentored the Buenos Aires international new rose competition.
She was also President of the Argentine Rose Association in the period 1994-1997 and advisor to the Santa Isabel Nursery and Meilland Austral Division (representative of Meilland Star Rose (France) in Argentina).
She was involved in the improvement and valorization of the Palermo Rose Garden, which received the "Garden of Excellence" Award in 2014 and in the creation of the Micaela Bastidas Rose Garden (Puerto Madero, Buenos Aires).
She passed away in September 2018, leaving an invaluable legacy in those who knew her within the Argentine Rose Association.

Hi! How's the rose now? I'm from the Philippines and I'm researching which roses do well in our tropical climate.

Hi from Philippines here. Do you have a Facebook account? Just in case, I can add you to an FB group which grows roses from the Philippines.
Tested 35 varieties so far, all are thriving though potted.

Large 5 inch FLAT many petaled crimson red flowers that have great raspberry scent. A prettier and more powerfully scented flower than any David Austin rose I've grown.
It grows 5 foot tall and 7 foot wide here in eastern North Carolina.
It will get blackspot. Fertile as a pollen parent.

How does this rose do with the rain and heat for you? Does it ball or burn? I'm in central North Carolina, not far from you.
