The cigar has been a symbol for power, privilege and prestige… since the
conquistadors introduced tobacco… to the European nobility… in the 1500s.
It’s all power! A man smoking a cigar is trying to capture that power…
he is able to show off a little bit. Women smoke cigars for the same reason.
Just holding this power prop… with their fingertips… gives women a certain
sense of Freedom, Power & Moxy… as either a unique independent thinker
or a romantic femme fatale.
