Hi, is there anything scented that climbs likes shade and is evergreen, or am I asking too much.
Regards,
Roccinante

Trachelospermum jasminoides (Star Jasmine) will tolerate some shade, but you won't get as many flowers as you will growing it in full sun.

If it is a very shaded spot, then yes I'm afraid you are asking too much.

Roses grow well in light shade. There are many climbing roses to pick from.

If it is deep shade you may be left with ivy as your sole candidate. :)

It’s a North facing wall but the east end gets a tiny bit of sun in the winter and in the early morning and very late evening in the summer due to its position gives a bit to the east and west side if that makes sense.
I forgot to mention that it will be grown up a support like a lean to that is about 8’ from the North facing wall.
