It was created by Henri Robert, a perfume creator which created many other perfumes of the Chanel house. Number 19 is a floral-woody-green fragrance, a white and green floral harmony. It is a unique blend of light-heartedness and sophistication, not simply a different concentration, but an olfactory reinterpretation, which is faithful to the spirit and base notes of the original composition.
