1969 may have the apogee of counter culture: as Vietnam dragged into yet another year, New York City was rocked by the Stonewall Riots, while upstate, Woodstock was awash in sex, drugs and rock-n roll, while student protests erupted across America and London. The Beatles druggy “Come Together” was number one in the charts, and John Lennon and Yoko Ono staged their famous bed-ins in Amsterdam and Montreal, during which Lennon wrote “Give Peace a Chance.” 19-69, a Swedish based perfume line launched in 2017, takes olfactory snapshots of that crazy year. As founder Johan Bergelin explains, “the year of 1969 represents an era of freedom, tolerance and counterculture. It is also the year I was born and my way of putting my heart on the sleeve.” 19-69 Purple Haze distills the hedonistic side of the summer of ’69. A silky balsamic fragrance with licks of violet and labdanum, it’s as chill as listening to some Hendrix from a big pile of throw pillows.
