An olfactory celebration of the place where the Pride movement originated. Herbaceous saffron and black pepper tickle the nose and revive the passion and energy of this place. It is not the place itself, but the community at this place that makes it so uniquely powerful. Sweltering leather rubs against each other, mysterious strangers laugh together, joy echoes through the hustle and bustle, and everyone is allowed to be there – everyone is welcome. The alluring blend of warm, smoky patchouli, spicy cumin, herbaceous castoreum, and dark wood suggests that the people in this place are indomitable. June 28 is an incomparably spicy-warm and smoky scent with leathery-woody notes and immense strength.

This fragrance was originally called "Christopher" and was renamed "June 28."


Top notes: Saffron, Black Pepper Heart notes: Indonesian Patchouli, Cumin Base notes: Myrrh Absolute, Castoreum (Synthetic), Papyrus Wood, Cedarwood

Behind the Fragrance

Johan Bergelin: “You knew of it as an unholy place that society ranted and warned you about. The area became the birthplace of the Stonewall Uprising, one of the most significant social turning points of 1969. As stated in New York Sunday News: Homo nest raided. Queen bees are stinging mad.”

Christopher Fragrance Journey – So What´s your Business?

In a leafy part of the suburb there is a beautiful lane with well-kept residences and flourishing gardens. This includes the household of Jim Olmeyer and Jim Berkley and their small dog Bitsy who tends to bark a lot. New to the vicinity however, is the Fitts family. The father, U.S Marine colonel Frank Fitts sports a strict crew cut and a classic brown cardigan with a checkered shirt. Reading glasses on, he studies the newspaper at the kitchen table while his wife is preparing breakfast. The door bell rings. Frank: “Are you expecting anyone?” Mrs Fitts: “No. No!”Frank answers the door where Jim and Jim wait, both eager to greet their new neighbors to the community. Wearing suits and ties, there is a pleasant waft of fragrance as they present a wicker basket generously filled with homegrown vegetables, pasta and fresh, colorful flowers. Jim O: “Hi!”Jim B: “Welcome to the neighborhood.”Jim O: “It’s just a little something from our garden.”Jim B: “Except for the pasta. We got that at Fallaci ́s. Jim O: “Right. It is unbelievably fresh. You drop it in the water and its done. Jim Olmeyer. Two doors down. Welcome to the neighborhood.”Frank: “Colonel Frank Fitts U.S Marine Corps.""Jim O: “It’s nice to meet you. This is my partner.”Jim B: “Jim Berkley, but people call me J.B.”Frank: “Let’s cut to the chase, okay? What are you guys selling?”Jim B: “Nothing. We just wanted to say hi to our new neighbors.”Frank: “Yeah, yeah, yeah... You said you’re partners? So what’s your business?” Jim O: “Well... he is a tax attorney.”Jim B: “And he is an anesthesiologist.”

19-69 Nineteen Sixtynine

The perfume cult brand 19-69 was founded by Swedish artist and product developer Johan Bergelin.  A twenty-four-month creative process with artisans in Scandinavia, France, and Italy led to the launch of 5 perfumes in 2017. Each fragrance is inspired by a different era, culture, or backdrop from Africa, Europe, the USA, and Asia. Art, music, trends, and cultures have shaped the fragrances in terms of content, name, and packaging. All fragrances are suitable for any gender and allow individuals to discover beauty across borders. Johan Bergelin: "The name of the brand 19-69 is a very strong statement. The year 1969 represents an era of freedom, tolerance, and counterculture. It is also the year I was born and my way of wearing my heart on my sleeve and saying: This is real. This is who I am."
