ALLIAGE - THE BEGINNING
June 1992. A big bank. First day in the office. New country, new city, new system, new colleagues.
PURE ANXIETY !!!
Everything is foreign and so unspeakably far from familiar. It doesn't help, I have to go through it, because I have a family to feed. Everything is new, my own office, my own desk and my own PC. I'll never make it - shortness of breath, shaking knees, fluttering heart, nausea.
Then it's off to the stock market. OMG - it's like a movie. A crowd of well-dressed men and few women are gathered, I'm like in a trance. Slippery parquet, ringing, screaming, rattling the
Dax -board above me - it's hell.... What was I thinking - I'll never make it... These numbers, these people, this rush - dear God, help me. Everything is spinning....
But then comes the saving hand, the saving look and the saving words - my boss stands next to me, looks me in the eye and says : " ... everything is only half as bad... They all just want to play... In a few weeks you'll understand everything and everything will be more normal... "
I croak some reply and wish for the final bell of the stock market to ring...
So it was then, and many crazy days followed. One scent has always accompanied and protected me during that time: ALLIAGE - he says : Until here and no further. Keep your distance, this woman must stand her ground - at all times. Hard and yet tender, unapproachable and yet enveloping, woody and yet warm - ALLIAGE unites everything and the feeling of that time, which brought so much growth and change. I have never experienced such an atmosphere of departure again.
Unapproachable green and woody notes, united with peach, pine and musk, conclude a fragrance that ends somewhat bitter-herbaceous and yet endearing. Quite typical understatement for the office. Clear demarcation. Desperation paired with hope and kindness. This scent is contradictory and indicative of my state then. And also today. Never would I want to miss it.
He is unique.
ALLIAGE continues to accompany me. The story is not over yet.
