Created in the late 19th century by Thomas Byrne Dunn, Sen-Sen was the first commercial breath-freshener marketed in the United States. Available in small pouches or cardboard boxes, it’s secret blend of licorice and ‘rare herbs’ would allegedly mask mouth odors resulting from food, drink or smoke.
“It does not sneak around with subtle sweetness and pepperminty little puffs. When one Sen-Sen hits your tongue and begins to dissolve, your breath takes on the authority of tear gas.” – Bill Stokes
