Notes de Bas de Paje 
Carambolage 
Extrait de Parfum 50 ml 
 
Five guys in the car, the night crawling over the hood like a famished cat. The road stretches out ahead of us, empty, indifferent, while the tires whisper secrets to the asphalt. Leather creaks, the earth waits for its turn. A bend, badly taken – too fast, too late, doesn’t matter. 
 
Silence falls, thick as a hangover after a bottomless night. Then the crash, sharp, frontal, unforgiving. 
 
01:12. Everything explodes. Leather rips, the earth barges in, glass shatters into tiny fragments, like dreams trampled at dawn. 
 
The roar floods the cabin, fear seeps everywhere—into the folds of our clothes, our throats, our hands. No why, no how, just raw fear, naked, without explanation. 
 
Afterwards, nothing. Heavy silence. Five lives suspended, the world upside down, literally. I’m pinned in the wreck, breath short, head spinning. One question pounding: is this the end? 
 
01:13. A door opens, somewhere, mine, someone else’s, what difference does it make? The night covers everything again, wordless, like an old accomplice. The road goes on, and so do I. That’s all that’s left, and it’s already enough.
