henosis natural perfume

Lingua Planta is the language of scent, through and through. Its founder, Merle Bergers, experienced the the inter-connectedness of plants and trees, insects and bigger animals firsthand by growing up in a small forest in the east of the Netherlands. During her studies at the Design Academy Eindhoven she grew more and more fascinated by the possible reality of plant communication. Nourished through books by the likes of forester ecologist Peter Wohlleben and writer/biologist Robin Wall Kimmerer she went on a journey to dig deep into the matter of plants fragrant messages. Inspired by the volatiles plants use to communicate, Lingua Planta has its roots deep down in scientific research but found an aesthetic translation in perfumes. Lingua Planta is based in de Bilt, Utrecht, the Netherlands.

Henosis: a powerful, smoky scent where the odour of a smoldering forest fire is slowly wrapped in the soothing energy of cedarwood and frankincence.

Use a couple of sprays on your pulse points to calm your mind and body. As drought and heat continue to boost the increase of wildfires across our planet, acts of symbolism bring comfort and solace in a time of many transformations and ecological griefs. Rituals can help us reconnect with ourselves, one another and our eco-systems. With this in mind, Merle created Henosis. The warming fumes of resinous materials and ambrette seeds are known to be calming on humans, while the vetiver and oakmoss help us ground. Use together with Attract for a powerful, sensual, inédit scent combo.
