Combat, 1955:
"Vers Toi (perfumed cologne) by Worth - a hill filled with spring and darkness. The softness of its slopes is like a goddess. It exhales a perfume of loneliness: the aroma of nocturnal lilacs mingled with that of hearts dry black roses or drinks the crystal moon. Flowering hay, mossy bark and resins prepare for the first cry of the wagtail and the exalted appearance of the jasmines of dawn."
