This cigarette carton photo guide is the morning quick-scan for Australian adults who want to tell one brand from another before checking a SKU. If you are comparing cigarette brands in Australia, the register holds 28 carton records across seven brands — Manchester, ESSE, Mevius, Marlboro, Dunhill, Double Happiness and Kent. Current listed prices run from A$178.50 to A$255.00 per carton of 10 packs (regular A$210.00–A$300.00). Read the pack text, match the photo to the written title, then confirm the SKU on the product page — the picture is supporting evidence, never proof by itself.
Cigarette Carton Photo Guide: How the Roundup Is Built
This roundup is a brand image provenance overview: each entry pairs a written title and SKU with the carton photo filed under that record. Every record is one carton of 10 packs; single packs are not part of the register. All 28 SKUs are in stock as recorded; the tone stays record-style, stating what the catalogue holds and how each image loads, without judging quality, authenticity or origin.
Source of the Image: Where Each Carton Photo Comes From
Every photo in this cigarette carton photo guide comes from its own product record page and loads from the media library as that record’s main image. The register pulls no photos from third-party listings and crops no pack art; below, the Double Happiness Soft photo is filed under SKU SS-1049 at its original size.
Load and Dimensions: What the Photo Check Covers
Each image passes three checks before filing: it loads from the media library, keeps usable dimensions, and carries descriptive alt text. Marlboro Red is 300 by 300, ESSE Lights Super Slim 650 by 650, and MEVIUS Premium Menthol Option Purple 8 1012 by 1012. The checks confirm the photo matches the product page — they do not turn a picture into proof.
Identity Check: Brand Cues That Match a Photo to Its SKU
Identity rests on the complete written title and the SKU, never the picture alone. Pack colour and flavour hints are cues, not identifiers. The cigarette brand identification notes below come straight from the recorded titles and cover the cigarette brands Australia buyers see in the register.
- Marlboro — four records: Red (SS-302), Hard White US Edition (SS-313), Vista Tropical Splash KS Box (SS-330), Ice Blast Mega 8mg (Japan) (SS-278); edition markers sit in the title.
- Mevius — five records, three in the Option Purple 8 family: Option Purple 8 (SS-355), Premium Menthol Option Purple 8 (SS-339), Premium Blueberry Blast Menthol Option Purple 8 (SS-366), plus Lights 8mg (SS-347) and Mild MEVIUS 10mg Hard Pack (SS-370).
- ESSE — super slim cigarettes lines: Lights Super Slim (SS-303), Menthol (Mechanical Green) Super Slim (SS-325), Change Double Applemint Orange (SS-259), Change Double Applemint Wine (SS-277) and Change Mint Ice Blast 4mg (SS-288).
- Manchester — nine records: Special Edition Blue (SS-191), Sapphire Blue (SS-196), the plain Sapphire Blue record (SS-214), Reserve (SS-204), UK Reserve (SS-218), Lights (SS-208), UK Sapphire Blue (SS-232), UK Red (SS-250) and Double Drive Blueberry Mint (SS-1779).
- Double Happiness — Soft (SS-1049) and Soft Real (SS-1059).
- Dunhill — Red 6mg (SS-372) and Blue 6mg (SS-386).
- Kent — Vietnamese Kent Switch (SS-338), the single Kent record.
When the photo and the title disagree, trust the title — the Marlboro Red record is SS-302 and the ESSE Lights Super Slim record is SS-303. Confirming the SKU on the product page closes every identity check.

FAQ: Cigarette Carton Photo Questions
Can pack colour alone tell me which brand or SKU a carton is?
No. Colour is a cue, not an identifier — the Option Purple 8 family alone covers three Mevius SKUs. Read the pack text and compare the title and SKU on the product page.
Does a photo in the register prove a product is genuine?
No. Qyvaxon records which photo is filed under which title and SKU and how the image loads. It does not make authenticity judgements.
Are the prices in this guide current?
Prices were read live at publication time and may change; the product page remains the authoritative record.
How do I check that a carton photo matches its SKU before ordering?
Open the product page, compare the photo with the written title, and confirm the SKU on the page matches the image alt text.
Adults 18+ only. Smoking causes serious health risks. Qyvaxon is an Australian 18+ adult tobacco catalogue for adults aged 18 years and over. Prices are as recorded at publication time and may change; the product page is the authoritative record.
