Lingua Planta
Did you know plants communicate via molecules through the air? All plants exchange olfactory messages via thousands of volatile compounds. Based on her research after these molecular messages, Merle Bergers made perfumes based on this botanical language of scent to shift our perspective from human to plant-perspective.

Sometimes plants must resort to the mechanism of volatile production to summon insects for protection or to fend off unwanted nibbling on their leaves. Plants attract bees and butterflies depending on the ripeness of the fruit and the plumpness of pollen. They even seduce people with their alluring perfumes to plant their flowers.. Plants attract, defend and repel with an astounding sense of inter-species connectivity and collaboration.
