It’s early October, a millennium ago, and you’re walking through wide streets of what is modern-day North-East India. As you step out of your house to walk through the quiet night, you’re utterly seduced, captured and enraptured by a maddening hypnotic scent, that seems to come from somewhere, from some tree, some flower no one seems to know the name of... They all know the tree, and yet none know the mystery behind it.
