Name That Rose!

How do you pronounce this?

I have a glorious climbing rose called "Crepuscule".

I need to know how to pronounce it's name because when I start telling fellow gardeners about it, I get all kinds of other ways to say it. I hate to be testy and will not resort to using the translation.
