10 – Hilton Cigarettes
The Hilton brand of cigarettes is popular worldwide. They are usually chosen because they offer a quality cigarette at a relatively low price.

6 – Pall Mall Cigarettes
Pall Mall cigarettes have been traditionally associated with wealth and luxury – the brand has been around since 1899. They are named after one of the richest parts of London.

The pack has a distinctive coat of arms which further gives the impression that this is a high class pack of cigarettes.
5 – Lucky Strikes
Lucky Strikes have been around since 1871 making them one of the oldest cigarette brands in the world. This was the top selling cigarette in the US for decades, and it many people still would not consider smoking anything else. They are more popularly referred to as “luckies”. They have appeared regular in films and TV shows over the years – most notably in the hit eighties TV show Miami Vice.
4- Newport
Newport is the number one brand for African Americans, but they only manage number four in our list.

The brand has been around since the 1960s but it really became popular in the nineties. Newport cigarettes are the favorite of many famous rap artists, and they have to be given at least some credit for popularizing this brand.
3 – Winston Cigarettes
Winston cigarettes first became available in the mid fifties. They were once associated with the cartoon show the Flintstones because Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble were used to advertise the brand. This was back in the 1960s and it is doubtful that any cigarette company would get away with using cartoon characters these days. Winston Cigarettes are popular in many countries around the world – they were the number one brand in Puerto Rico for many years.
2 – Camel Cigarettes
Camel Cigarettes probably have the most distinctive packaging of any of these brands – or at least it was up until a few years ago when they were forced to change it. The picture on the front of the pack is a camel –his name is Joe Camel. This used to be a cartoon camel, but the company decided to change the design because there were accusations that this made their cigarettes more appealing to children. Camel cigarettes have a harsh taste that some people seem to really enjoy – those who are not use to them get the impression that they are stronger than other cigarettes because of the taste.
1 – Marlboro Cigarettes
Marlboro cigarettes are the most popular brand in the world. They are produced by a US company and have been available since the 1920s. They became so well known because of their distinctive taste, and the talent of its advertisement department over the years. Despite the macho image of Marlboro today it was originally marketed as a woman’s cigarette. It was only during the 1950s that the idea of associating the brand with cowboys came about. This turned out to be the move that made the brand so popular. Marlboro has been heavily involved in sponsoring sporting events around the world, and this has also increased their public profile to make them such a well known name.
