1969 Parfum de Revolte, from Histoires de Parfums was released in 2001. The perfumer behind this creation is Gerald Ghislain. It has the top notes of Peach, middle notes of Cardamom, Cloves, Rose, and White Flowers, and base notes of Coffee, Dark Chocolate, Musk, and Patchouli.
1969 reminds me hugely of coSTUME national Homme. The absurdly sweet opening which becomes intensely sugary which I love could put many off. The peach note is not playing around or girly it's concentrated, atomic fruit which is almost caramelized with a tiny touch of sweet rose. Then as it dries down the hints of chocolate and very delicate patchouli are evident driven by a gentle musk base. I for one think it's like a better version of coSTUME national even though 1969 doesn't quite have the same sharpness of cinnamon or clove although somehow the same effect is created. Also CN goes a bit sour after all that sweetness as an attempt to balance it. Sometimes I think if you go that far you should just stick to it and go 'all out sweet' and that's what this does. Longevity is average and it projects at first then dies down very quick. My sweet tooth and love of fruitiness makes me adore this.
