People collect rose petals early in the morning. Bulgaria is widely recognised as the world’s leading producer and exporter of rose oil. According to the Bulgarian ministry of agriculture, the so-called ‘liquid gold’ had an average price of €9,168 per kilogram in 2023. It takes 34 tonnes of rose flowers, or around 1.6m rose petals, to produce a kilogram of rose oil.
