Dans les villages catalans du XIXe si\u00e8cle, le nom de Benito Alvarado \u00e9tait murmur\u00e9, non par peur, mais par perplexit\u00e9. Il n’\u00e9tait pas beau, ne portait pas de gilets de velours et ne poss\u00e9dait pas de domaine. Son corps maigre, paralys\u00e9 par la maladie, inspirait la piti\u00e9 plut\u00f4t que le d\u00e9sir. Mais d\u00e8s qu’une femme croisait son regard, tout s’\u00e9croulait : promesses, mariages et traditions. Les maris perdaient la paix, et les pr\u00eatres priaient en silence pour que le diable ne s’installe pas d\u00e9finitivement dans cette vall\u00e9e.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les rumeurs s’insinuaient comme un brouillard dans les vignes matinales. Certains disaient que Benito \u00e9tait maudit et poss\u00e9dait des pouvoirs d\u00e9moniaques. D’autres qu’il \u00e9tait un sorcier jetant des sorts. Mais Alvarado lui-m\u00eame restait silencieux. Il ne souriait que lorsqu’une autre veuve ou une beaut\u00e9 mari\u00e9e se pr\u00e9sentait dans sa boutique, dont les \u00e9tag\u00e8res \u00e9taient garnies de dizaines de flacons de parfums : jasmin, ambre, musc, lavande. Il savait exactement quel parfum ferait battre le c\u0153ur d’une femme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Il \u00e9tait autrefois apprenti chez un pharmacien \u00e0 Barcelone. Il \u00e9coutait, observait, m\u00e9langeait. Mais il s’int\u00e9ressait davantage aux odeurs qu’aux m\u00e9dicaments. Il pr\u00e9tendait que le parfum \u00e9tait un moyen de contr\u00f4ler l’\u00e2me. Apr\u00e8s la mort de son ma\u00eetre, Benito retourna dans son village natal et ouvrit un atelier de parfumerie. Cependant, personne ne savait que l’un des flacons contenait quelque chose de sp\u00e9cial : une substance qu’il appelait \u00ab l’essence du d\u00e9sir \u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On dit qu’il l’avait cr\u00e9\u00e9e lui-m\u00eame, en observant les animaux, en m\u00e9langeant des s\u00e9cr\u00e9tions glandulaires, des huiles, des herbes et quelque chose que lui seul connaissait. Ce parfum n’\u00e9tait ni sucr\u00e9 ni \u00e9pic\u00e9 : il \u00e9tait presque insaisissable. Mais quiconque l’inhalait perdait la volont\u00e9. Les femmes ressentaient une irr\u00e9sistible attirance, comme si quelqu’un d’autre s’\u00e9tait \u00e9veill\u00e9 en elles : quelque chose de plus ancien, de plus sauvage et de plus libre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Un jour, Alvarado se pr\u00e9senta \u00e0 une f\u00eate de village. Personne ne remarqua qu’il exhalait ce m\u00eame ar\u00f4me, l\u00e9ger comme le souffle du p\u00e9ch\u00e9. Une semaine plus tard, trois hommes s’y mettaient. Un mois plus tard, six. Le village s’emballa. Benito continua de sourire, comme s’il observait une exp\u00e9rience dont il connaissait le r\u00e9sultat depuis longtemps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Mais un jour, les hommes se rassembl\u00e8rent. Personne ne dit mot. Ils ramass\u00e8rent simplement des branches et se dirig\u00e8rent vers la maison, qui sentait la lavande et le santal chaud. Sa m\u00e8re, une vieille femme, se tenait \u00e0 la porte et implorait la cl\u00e9mence pour son fils. Personne ne l’\u00e9couta. Coup apr\u00e8s coup, puis le silence. Une fois termin\u00e9, elle ne pleura pas. Elle se contenta de laver les mains de son fils et, selon la l\u00e9gende, pronon\u00e7a une phrase qui resterait grav\u00e9e dans les m\u00e9moires pendant des d\u00e9cennies :
\u00ab Penses-tu avoir tu\u00e9 le p\u00e9ch\u00e9 ? Non. Tu as tu\u00e9 le parfum de l’amour.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apr\u00e8s sa mort, la maison \u00e9tait vide. Personne n’y entra. Mais un jour, bien des ann\u00e9es plus tard, un gar\u00e7on jouant dans le grenier trouva une bo\u00eete poussi\u00e9reuse. \u00c0 l’int\u00e9rieur se trouvaient plusieurs fioles. L’une d’elles \u00e9tait \u00e9tiquet\u00e9e \u00ab Essentia Amor \u00bb. Il l’ouvrit et inhala. On raconte que cette m\u00eame nuit, d’\u00e9tranges histoires recommenc\u00e8rent \u00e0 hanter le village.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ce n’est peut-\u00eatre qu’une l\u00e9gende. Mais si jamais vous sentez une odeur qui vous donne envie de tout abandonner, fuyez. Ce n’est peut-\u00eatre pas seulement un parfum. Benito Alvarado cherche peut-\u00eatre encore ceux qui savent r\u00e9sister.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dans les villages catalans du XIXe si\u00e8cle, le nom de Benito Alvarado \u00e9tait murmur\u00e9, non par peur, mais par perplexit\u00e9.
