Right about the attar, but my source - http://www.gardenmob.com/perfu... - says it takes about 30,000 petals to make an ounce.

Also on that link is a list of "most fragrant roses". I'm not sure what to make of that list since it includes Mr. Lincoln but not Angel Face, which to me is fabulously fragrant.
