When I met Lola, I was immediately fascinated by her bright eyes, which contrasted with the deep wrinkles she had acquired over the course of her eighty years and the stiffness of her spoken words. Then she told me about her Colombian grandfather, who had emigrated to the United States from Bogotá, dreaming of getting rich. In those days coca leaves were used legally, considered invigorating and magical. Lolei's grandfather decided to create an energizing elixir based on this plant, from which he made a fortune. He called it Nudo. Shortly after the elixir's creation, the substance was banned and the commercialization of the essence was discontinued. Around the same time, however, Lola's grandfather met Kate, a young Irish girl from a good Irish family, raised Catholic. One day he showed the girl his warehouse and his 1000 vials of Nudo. Kate fell hopelessly in love with the elixir. She added a dash of frankincense and the flavors began to meld, creating a wonderful fragrance. It was a miracle: Kate had succeeded in creating the elixir of the two worlds, the sacred and the profane, which together formed a whole. Soon after, Lola's grandfather went back to Colombia, never to return. Waiting for him, Kate stopped selling perfume. "This is the last vial," Lola told me. "When it empties, all memories will be erased with it. That's why I told you the story. Never forget it." Then she smiled and gave me that last vial of perfume.
