Birth of a myth shrouded in legend
The myth is founded! Once originated from the legendary Al-Haramain chewing gum dispenser, which I have already mentioned elsewhere, "Jafran 320" from the fund of a mysterious patron reached me as a phantom, as a blue placeholder in the form of a bottle. I was allowed to give him a face. He levitated.
But I'm sorry, I can't grade it, I can't press it into a number, it's completely impossible for me. I am not worthy of him. I do not feel able to draw its depths from the oriental basket, because I am not a fakir and I do not play the right instrument to let the nuances emerge from the fragrance like a snake. Saffron is there, yes, if I would ask for the scent, like a child asks for a crayon, I would ask for "the yellow"! Whoever will have the honour of testing it will know what I mean by this in a broader sense. Light Indian incense I noticed how it lay over woods, somewhere in the distance, when I closed the basket again. I knew that this flacon was destined to move on, to be analysed by trained specialists, to be like a challenge cup through the vastness of this olfactory world, so that it would find its purpose in a double sense
