CHINESE TOBACCO – FRAGRANCE NOTES
The ‘peace and love sign’ was designed in the 1950s by Gerald Holtom and was along with the peace hand sign adopted by anti-war activists during the 1970s. The name 19-69 stands for just this: freedom, tolerance and counterculture. The scent Chinese Tobacco by 19-69 is also a reminiscence of a visit I made to a Chinese restaurant in Kuala Lumpur. It was late at night, the air was
filled with wonderful aromas from the kitchen area, while a group of men was smoking and playing cards. Fragrance notes for the perfume include Tobacco, Coriander and Oud.
