Gap Established 1969 for Women

Unfortunately, GAP stopped selling fragrances in their Canadian stores in the early 2010s. Since then, I've come across a couple "1969" (F) fragrances that are definitely not at their peak performance. One of these purchases was straight up alcohol. The second had a broken cap and also smelled a little off. The third seems watered down, almost like a ultra EDT but its still similar to what it was before. There's a feeling of coldness, like brisk mountain air mixed with petrichor and natural woodsiness/minerals. But it remains fresh and full of sunshine at the top. A bit soapy, woody, fresh. Something about it feels so invigorating and powerful -and quite different from anything I've ever smelled before & much more than your average "citrus". True unisex imo- with ever so slightly masculine undertones. Oh how I wish it was still available. GAP makes some amazing fragrances. They are missing out on the increasingly growing market of fragrance. 🥲

Just picked this randomly today, my bottle must be 15 years old at least, and WOW it's still so zingy and effervescent, I love it. It starts off with a grapefruit blast that doesn't lean towards body odour thanks to the grounding musk, I think. Just so affable, cheery and easy to wear. A wonderful summer spritz. Definitely worth picking up if you come across a vintage bottle somewhere.

Like it very much! Super clean and refreshing scent, reminds laundry soap a little. Long lasting, sillage is moderate to heavy, a plus among Gap frags. Extremely nice choice for hot humid summer days. Wears prettier in warm weather, it'll develop and project more.

Now I smell like a detergent and it also dries down to a manly scent.it feels like I want to puke eveytime I use this but since I dont like to waste money I will still use it on very hot humid days.

A decent fragrance at a decent price. It is a bit soapy but has a light basenote of Oud which i really like.
