Beschreibung
Female Christ verkörpert den Gang einer nackten Frau mit einem Kreuz auf dem Rücken durch die Kopenhagener Börse – eine Kunstperformance aus dem Jahr 1969, die für immer in Erinnerung bleibt. Ein Standbild umgeben von diesem warmen, erdig-samtigen Patchouli-Duft, der durch belebende Nuancen aus würzig-krautigen Aromen von Eukalyptus und Piment zum olfaktorischen Abenteuer wird. In ihrer nackten Ehrlichkeit trifft die erdige Note auf eine süß-saftig frische Balance aus Rhabarber und Beeren. Im vorüber Schreiten hinterlässt sie ihr Vermächtnis, eine geheimnisvoll holzig und würzige Süße aus Amber, Zimtrinde und Kaschmirholz. Eine Kunst, die existiert, während sie noch im Entstehen ist – erdig und holzig mit Integrität. Das stilvollste und zugleich provokanteste Arrangement eines Patchouli-Dufts.

Behind the Fragrance
Johan Bergelin: In 1969, a naked woman carrying a cross, walked through the Copenhagen Stock Exchange. The performance act went under the name Female Christ. The social revolution and constant transgression of boundaries in the late 1960s meant that artists expressions took new directions. Some artists opposed of dominant values and behavior of society by using performance art: art that exists while in progress. However, this also means that significant voices and parts of art historý from this time period risk to fade as they only exist as photographic or filmed records. By creating a fragrance with the same name, 19-69 ensures that the memory is immortalized.
Female Christ Fragrance Journey – The Long Walk
„We went there in a taxi; I was naked underneath my black coat, and kept the cross against my stomach… I was amazingly nervous… But suddenly they were in full swing. David stood by the exit, filming, and Bjørn was walking with a tape recorder and with my clothes, and then I started walking. I remember a rope was suddenly blocking my way. I wasn t expecting that, so that was quite weird, but then I just kept walking with the cross, holding it up high at first and then downwards, the way you hold a yo-yo. Then it was over. And you could have heard a pin drop! Someone shouted Butyou can t do that! and Good Heavens! Look, Sørensen, look! Then we went out to the taxi waiting outside and drove away.
