Can anyone ID this rhody?

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.

Some Yaku hybrids develop a fuzzy thing called indumemtum on the bottom of the leaves. You could check pictures of those to see if this one resembles them.

R. edgeworthii or maybe one of its hybrids.
