L'air Barbès Candle
Helmut Newton's photograph that made YSL's Le Smoking iconic is known for its androgynous appeal. With its stark monochrome simplicity, Newton created a powerful piece of imagery. The creation of L'air Barbès was heavily influenced by the androgyny present in this image. L'air Barbès by 19-69 is evocative of Paris's diverse personas, the concrete alleyways, la banlieue, and, of course, the Barbès – Rochechouart area. This fragrance is also a tribute to Paris, capitale de la mode.
The scent is cold, light and fresh.
