年輕的時候，我們都曾經相信過什麼。相信自己的聲音有意義，相信那份純粹的勇敢，能帶我們去到某個地方。

後來，我們走了很遠。在細節中忙碌，在現實中妥協，漸漸忘了最初為什麼出發。

屬於漆樹科的馬達加斯加鹽膚木，來自遙遠的孤島，在潮濕的常綠森林中安靜生長。它的氣味，彷彿一陣迎面而來的海風。初聞時，帶著海水的微鹹與果實的爽直，如同聽見流水與林間的聲音——那些單純而清澈的聲音。隨後慢慢沉澱出一絲極為細緻、深刻的微苦。

這股苦味並不悲傷，反而充滿了力量。就像是青春的汗水與眼淚，提醒著我們曾經為了某些價值而努力過的痕跡。

當遺忘變得容易，記得就成了一種選擇。

這股充滿生命力的香氣，如同一個安靜的內在指南針。在迷途中輕輕提醒：那個最初的自己還在。那份相信，那份勇敢，從未真正離開。

願你在漫長的歲月裡，永遠不會忘記年輕時的那份純粹，守住心中的那團火。

以香為語，安在當下。

In our youth, we all held onto a belief. We believed that a pure, unadulterated courage could carry us to somewhere extraordinary.

Since then, we have journeyed far. Entangled in the endless trivialities of life and yielding to the compromises of reality, we have slowly lost sight of why we first set sail.

Hailing from a solitary island, Madagascar Sumac—a member of the Anacardiaceae family—grows in quiet solitude amidst humid, evergreen forests. Its fragrance is akin to a sudden, welcoming sea breeze. The initial encounter brings a touch of oceanic saltiness intertwined with a crisp, fruity sweetness, much like hearing the murmur of flowing streams and rustling leaves—sounds that are profoundly simple and crystal clear. As it gradually settles, it unveils a trace of exquisitely delicate, yet profound bitterness.

This touch of bitterness bears no sorrow; instead, it is imbued with quiet strength. Much like the sweat and tears of our youth, it is the lingering trace of having once fought so fiercely for something.

When forgetting becomes effortless, to remember becomes a conscious choice.

This deeply vital aroma serves as a silent inner compass. When we lose our way, it gently whispers: that original version of yourself is still there. That unwavering belief, that raw courage, has never truly departed.

May you, throughout the long passage of time, forever guard the flame within your heart.

Grounded in the present, spoken through scent.
