The woman who smokes Yves Saint Laurent cigarettes is more attractive than one who smokes another brand or doesnt smoke at all, claims the fashion house. Yves Saint Laurent is taking its conception of Le Smoking seriouslyand perhaps a tad too literally. When the French fashion house isnt employing African artisans to cobble purses together from recycled plastic bags and fair-trade cotton, its also lending its moniker to a line of cigarettes. So much for social responsibility. Marketed to women in Asia and Russia, the smokes come in minimalist black boxes with gold foil. You dont have to pony up for prestige pricing, either: Online retailers hawk the cancer sticks, which have been around since 1989, for up to $44 per 200-cigarette pack.We dont have to tell you about the dangers of tobacco, the gaucheness of nicotine-stained teeth, or the idiocy of self-induced lung cancer and heart disease. Youre far too sophisticated not to know. For the less-informed, however, YSL offers a Faustian deal. Its cigarettes, according to the luxury label, creates a sense of appeal to female vanity and thereby making the woman who chose to smoke Yves Saint Laurent cigarettes more attractive than one who smokes another brand, or more attractive than a woman who did not smoke at all.YSL isnt the only high-end brand to market so-called fashion cigarettes. Other companies known to have dabbled in the practice include Givenchy, Versace, Christian Lacroix, and Cartier.
