Gitanes

<h2 id="history">History</h2>
Gitanes was launched in 1910 in four different versions, all of which were filterless. In 1918, Gitanes Maïs were introduced, which were a success in the rural areas of <a href="/facts/France/CxIeIKM3">France</a>. In the 1930s, the first graphic ads for Gitanes appeared. In 1956, the first filtered Gitane variant was introduced. In 1981, the "Light" versions are first marketed. In 1986, the first Gitanes Blondes were launched, which had become available internationally in 1987. However, they were a commercial failure.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:1" href="#fn:1">1</a> In 1988, the first "Extra Light" versions were marketed. In 1991, Gitanes ultra lights were introduced. In 1990/1991, a simultaneous launch of a new version of Gitanes Blondes ultra light were brought on the market.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:2" href="#fn:2">2</a>
Gitanes are sold in many varieties of strengths and packages. The cigarette was originally made with a darker or brun (brown) tobacco, in contrast to the more widespread blonde. In honour of the name, the packet shows the silhouette of a Spanish gypsy woman playing the <a href="/facts/Tambourine/e6IwRVRd">tambourine</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:3" href="#fn:3">3</a>
There is a distinction between the "blonde" style of the current Gitanes, and the classic style of Gitanes Brunes, both of which are sold in <a href="/facts/Europe/DTAtrKfh">Europe</a> and <a href="/facts/South_America/PhrFEMk7">South America</a> (most commonly in <a href="/facts/Argentina/aFSA5bAk">Argentina</a> and <a href="/facts/Chile/uEyTfEcx">Chile</a>). The classic Gitanes Brunes tobacco achieved its characteristic and distinctive "bite" by using a fire-flued method of <a href="/facts/Curing_of_tobacco/3jAlRUAA">curing</a> the tobacco, and a "rice" type of rolling paper which differs from most other cigarettes. The result was a cigarette which had both a strong flavour and a distinctive aroma.
Gitanes Blondes are available, filtered, in Light and Regular. The Gitanes Brunes are available in 70 mm versions, filtered and unfiltered. In 2010, the size and content of the regular Gitanes were reduced. Gitanes Maïs (corn) are made with yellow corn paper.

Production in France was halted, with one factory remaining operational in the <a href="/facts/Netherlands/y8xn5stT">Netherlands</a>. This was mainly due to the rise on tobacco levies imposed by the <a href="/facts/Government_of_France/FTgt9l9r">French Government</a> in the wake of enforced <a href="/facts/Directive_(European_Union)/KS076mKR">EU health directives</a>, which has forced up the price of French cigarettes to the level of those in the US, with the more aggressively promoted brands such as <a href="/facts/Marlboro_(cigarette)/cxIg6AmR">Marlboro</a> now taking the majority <a href="/facts/Market_share/kvXSlhlB">market share</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:4" href="#fn:4">4</a>
The 1990s were particularly successful for Gitanes in terms of brand engagement. In an effort to increase awareness, the brand began sponsoring motor-sports such as <a href="/facts/Formula_One/BwdePyWY">Formula One</a> racing and the <a href="/facts/Dakar_Rally/PPK8mlTa">Dakar Rally</a>. These activities helped to attract a wider range of potential customers while avoiding any dilution of the brand image and thus retained the loyalty of its more artistic core customer base.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5">5</a>
In July 2016, the French government considered a ban on both the Gitanes and <a href="/facts/Gauloises/mHkNFvKV">Gauloises</a> cigarette brands because they were deemed "too stylish and cool". The ban would also apply to brands including <a href="/facts/Marlboro_(cigarette)/cxIg6AmR">Marlboro</a> Gold, <a href="/facts/Vogue_(cigarette)/g7Es6Dbe">Vogue</a>, <a href="/facts/Lucky_Strike/A2rP5MaK">Lucky Strike</a> and <a href="/facts/Fortuna_(cigarette)/GrfC2TeM">Fortuna</a>. It is the result of a new public health law based on a European directive that says tobacco products "must not include any element that contributes to the promotion of tobacco or give an erroneous impression of certain characteristics". Four major tobacco companies have written to the government seeking clarification on the potential law, calling for an urgent meeting to discuss the details of the plan. In the letter they accuse French Health Minister <a href="/facts/Marisol_Touraine/dBDbKBU9">Marisol Touraine</a> of an "arbitrary and disproportionate" application of EU directives.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6">6</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7">7</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8">8</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:9" href="#fn:9">9</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:10" href="#fn:10">10</a>
Since the 1930s, many advertisements have been made to promote the Gitanes brand.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:11" href="#fn:11">11</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:12" href="#fn:12">12</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:13" href="#fn:13">13</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:14" href="#fn:14">14</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:15" href="#fn:15">15</a>

<h2 id="packaging">Packaging</h2>
In 1927 Maurice Giot introduced the first design in the <a href="/facts/Art_Deco/y1xFeh9t">Art Deco</a> style. From 1943 packets featured a Gypsy dancer, designed by Molusson. In 1947 the figure was refined to a silhouette by Max Ponty; this image is still in use today. The silhouette has been used on many famous posters; these have included Savignac (1953) and Morvan (1960).<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:16" href="#fn:16">16</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:17" href="#fn:17">17</a> The boxes have always featured the colours black, blue and white.

<h2 id="motorsport-sponsorship">Motorsport sponsorship</h2>
<h3>Formula One</h3>

Gitanes had a long-standing partnership with the <a href="/facts/%25C3%2589quipe_Ligier/qT21h9gm">Équipe Ligier</a> team. Following the acquisition of the <a href="/facts/Equipe_Matra_Sports/d5ucBlxS">Matra</a> <a href="/facts/Formula_One/BwdePyWY">Formula One</a> team's assets, Ligier entered Formula One in <a href="/facts/1976_Formula_One_season/RYrlyV92">1976</a> with a Matra <a href="/facts/V12_engine/2V4zWCmo">V12</a>-powered car, and won the <a href="/facts/1977_Swedish_Grand_Prix/o9HqJkVu">1977 Swedish Grand Prix</a> with <a href="/facts/Jacques_Laffite/pepIVyXa">Jacques Laffite</a>. This is generally considered to have been the first all-French victory in the Formula One World Championship.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:18" href="#fn:18">18</a>
In total the team won 8 races, got 47 podiums and earned 373 points during their partnership with Gitanes. In <a href="/facts/1995_Formula_One_World_Championship/vEReaeDj">1995</a>'s end of the sister company <a href="/facts/Gauloises/mHkNFvKV">Gauloises</a> became the new sponsor, ending a partnership that lasted 19 years.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:19" href="#fn:19">19</a>
In 1997 the team was sold to <a href="/facts/Alain_Prost/HSqWHU7p">Alain Prost</a> and became the <a href="/facts/Prost_Grand_Prix/PQpNFBMv">Prost Grand Prix</a> in <a href="/facts/1997_Formula_One_World_Championship/wkKgCrvq">1997</a>. Prost GP, despite substantial financial backing by large private French companies, failed to make the team competitive and went bankrupt in <a href="/facts/2002_Formula_One_World_Championship/T5hcx1z4">2002</a>.

<h3>Sports cars</h3>
After retiring from racing following the death of his friend <a href="/facts/Jo_Schlesser/vIV7SzKH">Jo Schlesser</a>, Guy Ligier decided to found his own team and had engineer <a href="/facts/Michel_T%25C3%25AAtu/Hste7Fe4">Michel Têtu</a> develop a sports car named the <a href="/facts/Ligier_JS1/d5wNvKW4">JS1</a> (Schlesser's initials). The <a href="/facts/Cosworth/JTGRSF41">Cosworth</a>-powered JS1 took wins at Albi and Montlhéry in 1970, but retired at <a href="/facts/1970_24_Hours_of_Le_Mans/T44Nrwm3">Le Mans</a> and from the Tour Automobile de France.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:20" href="#fn:20">20</a>
For 1971, Ligier had the JS1 developed into the <a href="/facts/Ligier_JS2/zHQBsWW8">JS2</a> and <a href="/facts/Ligier_JS3/3sz9Yj6B">JS3</a>. The JS2 was homologated for road use and used a <a href="/facts/Maserati/r4L72G4A">Maserati</a> V6 engine, while the JS3 was an open-top sports-prototype powered by a Cosworth DFV V8 engine. The JS3 won at Montlhéry in 1971 but failed to finish the minimum distance in Le Mans. Therefore, it was retired,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:21" href="#fn:21">21</a> and Ligier installed the Cosworth DFV in the JS2 road car, finishing second overall at <a href="/facts/1975_24_Hours_of_Le_Mans/NAtlLwrA">Le Mans in 1975</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:22" href="#fn:22">22</a> Guy Ligier then switched his efforts into Formula One.

<h3>Dakar Rally</h3>
Gitanes also sponsored various teams in the <a href="/facts/Dakar_Rally/PPK8mlTa">Dakar Rally</a> from its first season in <a href="/facts/1979_Paris%25E2%2580%2593Dakar_Rally/pUK9PJQc">1979</a> until tobacco sponsorship was banned by the French government.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:23" href="#fn:23">23</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:24" href="#fn:24">24</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:25" href="#fn:25">25</a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:26" href="#fn:26">26</a>
