I wonder why it is that cigar smoke smells good, unlike cigarette smoke, which stinks like a f*rt. What could the difference be? Unfortunately the tobacco smoke from both chokes me nearly to death.

It's possibly because cigarettes use the cheapest low grade tobacco available.

Modern cigarettes, especially modern filter and menthol cigarettes, use reconstituted tobacco scraps, plus various chemicals and sugars for flavoring.

A good cigar is made almost strictly of tobacco, the finest tobacco money can buy.
