A Question for all those who smoke/know about law

It says on this thread - http://www.thomascookessentials.com/ques...owance.asp

"EU Duty-Free Allowances
Travellers flying within the EU are allowed duty-free goods to the value of £390 . However, you do not have to pay any duty on goods bought within the EU if the tax was included in the price when you purchased them.
The following quantities of alcohol and tobacco are also allowed duty-free:

Alcohol: 90 litres of wine, 110 litres of beer, 10 litres of spirits (above 22% alc/vol) and 20 litres of fortified wine

Tobacco: 3200 cigarettes, 400 cigarillos, 200 cigars, or 3kg of tobacco"

So does this mean I can bring back 3200 cigarettes, 400 cigarillos, 200 cigars and 3kg's of tobacco all in one flight without paying any duty or tax on top aslong as its within the EU? Or is it just one of those products?

These quotas seems very high to me for a single person.
For what i know you can add all (cigarettes + cigars + alccoohol ...) but with very less quantities, like 500 cigarettes /person... that's what i could buy coming from France and going to Finland, without paying taxes, as a single person.
For alcoohol it's something like 5l of liquors, maybe less.
