If you want to smoke more, I'd say try Menthol cigs. Mind you I love 'em, so I would say that.
When I switched to menthols both the amounts of cigarettes I needed to smoke, and the amount of pleasure I got from each one almost immediately doubled. With Marlboro Lights I found if I smoked more than a couple in the space of about two hours, all I felt from the the later ones was a dry, unpleasant sensation in my mouth, now I'm known to smoke four or more in an hour and absolutely love every single one.
They are much more addictive though - before I only really needed to smoke every three or four hours at most, sometimes even less. Now I need at least a couple every hour and a half or I start feeling really bad, so that's something to be careful of. On balance it's good really though, because now I get to feel that amazing ultra-intense 'oh boy I needed that' feeling so much more often.
