الفصل الخامس من L'Arbre de Vie · الجذع
عود · فانيلا · التونكا
هنا تنتهي العبوات البيضاء وتبدأ السوداء. شيري عود هو جذع الشجرة، الممرّ الحيّ بين الزهرة والجذر، وهو يهبط برفق. ترفع البرغموت والخزامى قلباً من الفانيلا والتونكا، ذلك الدفء المستدير شبه الصالح للأكل النابع من الكومارين والبنزوين، فوق عودٍ عنبريٍّ ناعم، خشبيٍّ متحفّظ لا دخاني. يحفظ الباتشولي وخشب الغواياك والأميريس صدق الحلاوة، فلا تنزلق أبداً إلى عالم الحلوى. الجذع هو حيث يتصل كل شيء. ما تجمعه الجذور يحمله صاعداً إلى الزهر. حلاوةٌ محفوظة في دفء الخشب. دعوةٌ إلى العمق، لا مطلب.

Chapter V · The Trunk
Inspired by Warmth
Warmth is what carries.
A warm person holds the door. In the tree, that is the trunk: everything the roots gather in the dark travels through it, upward, into bloom. Here the white boxes end and the black begin. Vanilla, tonka bean and benzoin, the warmest materials I know, are the heart; the first oud of the house arrives soft and ambery, woody rather than smoky; patchouli and guaiac wood keep the sweetness honest. If oud has ever felt like too much, this is the door I left open for you.
