Discovery Gift Kit
Get to know Lingua Planta with the much coveted Discovery Gift Kit. 5 x 5 ml perfume spray bottles. The kit includes Defend, Repel, Attract, Henosis, Understory and Sacred Sun upon request.
Attract: Bees and butterflies encounter a Bulgarian rose. Attract is based on the ways flowers attract pollinators with their floral scent molecules. A rosy, fresh perfume leads you deep into an empathetic understanding of the olfactory language of plants.
Repel: Invoked by the invigorating scent of vetiver, bergamot, galbanum and citrus oils, you imagine yourself sitting underneath a lemon tree in a Sicilian vegetable garden in spring. Use a couple of sprays on your body for an uplifting and refreshing effect.
Defend: Green broken stems, trampled grass and seeping tree resins reminisce a forest walk. Cedarwood, the smell of fresh cut grass, oakmoss and agarwood invite us to think about the regenerative aspects of a forest. This perfume is grounding and has anxiety relieving effects.
Henosis: A powerful, smokey scent where the odour of a smoldering forest fire is slowly wrapped in the soothing energy of cedarwood and frankincence. The warming fumes of resinous materials and ambrette seeds are known to be calming on human beings, the vetiver and oakmoss help us to ground.
Understory: Where Attract, Repel and Defend are all about plants communicating above ground, Understory is about the intelligence, communication and collaboration underground between mycelium and trees. 🍃Translated into a wearable perfume that harnesses the scent of the undergrowth; mosses, pine, earthy notes of Patchouli and Vetiver, softened by Amyris, Tonka and Lavender absolute. Our most intricate and layered scent.

"Oh my goodness.... these are gorgeous! Attract - I cannot stop smelling it! I feel embraced by a bed of roses. And Defend is unlike anything I've ever experienced and deeply connected with me emotionally. Really beautiful collection." - Linentutu
"My discovery kit arrived yesterday, and I started with Understory. I am truly amazed! I had the preconception that natural perfumes fade quickly, but I can still smell the scent! It's incredible how the layers resonate on a spiritual level as well. You've created such an incredibly beautiful product. I'm in awe and look forward to experiencing your other creations. Thank you for following your passion and bringing your mission and vision to life!" - Esther
"Recently, I ordered your Discovery Kit, and I’m so happy with it! As someone who always had allergic reactions to perfumes because of the fragrances and chemicals, I never thought I’d truly be able to enjoy a perfume. But thanks to you, I can now smell wonderful without any allergic reactions. Thank you for your beautiful work!" - Shantal

"I love the subtle and discrete and natural aromas that remind me to breathe and look up to the skies and trees.. relaxing aromas that bring me back to the ‘here and now’ with a smile." - Margarita de la luz
"Very often, people ask me about the perfume I'm wearing. The next thing they often mention is how common perfumes can be overwhelming, even disturbing, especially in places like the office or public transport, and I am with them on that! And so it seems as though they truly appreciate the presence of one of your scents in their surroundings. (By the way, I'm a man, so what they're saying is most probably not just for an easy compliment). So, in a way, it's not just me who walks around with joy. Scents have always been pretty darn important to me, but I must say, risking to sound overly dramatic or even privileged, ever since I discovered Lingua Planta, my everyday experience of the Human condition has significantly improved. Does that make sense? :) Anyway, I'm very grateful for that. Thank you!" - Reciprocity Johnson
"Since discovering Merle's fragrances, language has become so much more than it already was. She doesn’t just speak the language of plants; she creates poetry with them. Attract was the first scent I experienced. It brings out the romantic Shakespeare in me: ‘Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate: rough winds do shake the darling buds of May…’ I was instantly captivated and immensely curious about the other fragrances. A poem for every feeling I wish to evoke, enhance, or create. Repel is fresh and strong. Henosis is earthy and calming. Defend inspires contemplation and reflection. The limited edition ‘Sacred Sun’ takes me back to salty summer evenings… yep, I am utterly enchanted by Merle's 'Poetica Planta'; what an artist she is, with her gift for conveying so much feeling through nature." - from the community
