1969 celebrates a year of liberation and carefree living. It opens on sun-ripened fruit and velvety peach, immediately pricked with cardamom and clove.
The floral heart, of rose and white flowers, slips towards a surprisingly gourmand base: chocolate, coffee and patchouli, wrapped in musk. A joyful, sensual fragrance with no interest in being sensible.

1969 Parfum de Révolte in detail
In the olfactory library of Histoires de Parfums, each creation tells of a character, a work or a year. 1969 bottles a year of freedom and revolt: Gérald Ghislain, the house's founder and perfumer, turns it into a fruity, spicy gourmand, warm and a little insolent.
The official pyramid opens on fruity notes and peach, a velvety, juicy start. The heart combines rose, white flowers, cardamom and clove: flowers lifted with spices. The base brings together patchouli, chocolate, coffee and musk, a dark, gourmand foundation.
1969 Parfum de Révolte is worn in the evening, in autumn and winter: a night out, a party, a concert. Its spices and chocolate make it a natural choice for the festive season.
