Sarah (daughter plant)
In Louisiana where Morris grew up, strawberries are a growing $8.7 million industry, celebrated with annual festivals and field trips for school children. Sarah draws from very personal childhood memories of the fruit picked and eaten directly from the field. A wobble between sweetness and tartness, sun warmth, green as well as the flush of red fruit. Directly juicy.

Rachel (mochi)
Qualities of camp, artifice, dress up, and frivolity are conjured with Rachel, which addresses the long traditions of strawberry applied to confectionary uses. Inspired by mochi balls, milkshakes, and artificially flavored candies, Rachel compliments a strawberry accord with fluffy heliotrope and vanilla, milk and butter extracts, honey, and touches of blood orange and raspberry. 

Ingrid (fury)
Distortion, deception, and successions of signals aimed at manipulating perception through appearance and smell, with a nod to Cukor’s 1944 thriller starring Ingrid Bergman, Ingrid is a strawberry set aflame, smoldering among toasted spices and incense. Opoponax, frankincense, and myrrh, cardamom, coriander, clove, as well as several types of pepper that register more floral and fruity than hot and spicy, are brought together as a fiery bouquet in which strawberry is situated. Smoky vetiver and benzoin finish off the blend, suggesting the fruit as a radiant ember.

        

Carmen (criminelle)
The most experimental of the group, Carmen is a strawberry born of both flora and fauna. Hyraceum and an aldehyde derived from cumin—which shares many chemical attributes with the scent of human sweat—are among the materials used to suggest a bodily landscape in which languishing fruit occurs. The sun ripened sweet rot smell of immortelle coaxes Carmen toward a state of gentle, masticated decay. Issuing from these collapsed berries are the distinctly metallic aspects associated with blood. Carmen is suggestive of a crime scene, even one invented in personal fantasy, centered on bloodied fruit.
