The super-slim brand is built for the way city smokers actually buy &mdash; a 10-pack carton, a light draw, and capsule options from menthol to fruit. This article records what the current product pages show, starting with the <a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/producto\/esse-mentol-mecanico-verde-super-slim\/\">ESSE Mentol (Verde Mec\u00e1nico) Super Slim<\/a> en <strong>A$149.50 per carton<\/strong> (regular A$230.00). Prices change, so the product pages remain the reference.<\/p>\n<h2>The super-slim habit in plain terms<\/h2>\n<p>Super slim means what it says: the cigarette body is noticeably thinner than the standard king-size format most Australian adults grew up with. The narrow body changes both the look and the draw &mdash; lighter, slower, more precise. For adults who smoke in social settings, the format is also discreet, which is one reason it travelled from Korea and Japan into the city habits of Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. ESSE is the brand most associated with the format worldwide, and in Australia it is the name adults most often mention when the conversation turns to slim cigarettes.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/img_v3_0214b_d0d9eb91-2034-4918-9d99-1e53f0f2ce6g.png\" alt=\"ESSE Mentol (Verde Mec\u00e1nico) Super Slim\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>City buying habits match the carton model<\/h2>\n<p>City smokers in Australia buy in cartons because single packs are expensive and the carton is the natural unit for regular use. Every ESSE line is sold as a 10-pack carton, and the current records are: <a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/producto\/luces-esse-super-slim\/\">Esse Lights Super Slim<\/a>, ESSE Menthol (Mechanical Green) Super Slim and <a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/producto\/esse-change-menta-ice-blast-4mg\/\">Esse Change Menta Ice Blast 4mg<\/a> at A$149.50 per carton (regular A$230.00), and <a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/producto\/esse-cambio-doble-manzana-menta-vino\/\">ESSE Cambio Vino Doble Menta Manzana<\/a> y <a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/producto\/esse-cambio-doble-manzana-menta-naranja\/\">ESSE Change Doble Menta Naranja<\/a> at A$175.50 per carton (regular A$270.00). Two price steps, five lines, one format.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/%E6%B8%85%E9%99%A4%E6%B0%B4%E5%8D%B0%E7%94%9F%E6%88%90%E9%AB%98%E6%B8%85sku%E5%9B%BE-2.png\" alt=\"Esse Lights Super Slim\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>The capsule ritual and the modern city palate<\/h2>\n<p>The capsule trend has reshaped how Australian adults choose cigarettes. A capsule cigarette is plain until the filter bead is crushed, then flavoured &mdash; and that two-in-one behaviour fits city routines well: a light smoke during the day, a cold mint or fruit finish after work. The ESSE Change lines cover that spectrum, from the strong mint of Mint Ice Blast 4mg to the softer fruit of the two Double Applemint lines. For adults moving between moods across the day, the capsule lines offer a choice that a fixed-flavour line cannot, and the two-in-one character also explains why the format keeps appearing in conversations about lighter alternatives in the city.<\/p>\n<h2>ESSE lines across city routines<\/h2>\n<p>The five lines map naturally onto different parts of a city week. The table below records each line, where it tends to fit, and the current carton price alongside the regular price.<\/p>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Line<\/th>\n<th>City routine fit<\/th>\n<th>Carton price<\/th>\n<th>Regular price<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/producto\/luces-esse-super-slim\/\">Esse Lights Super Slim<\/a><\/td>\n<td>The plain daily reference<\/td>\n<td>A$149.50<\/td>\n<td>A$230.00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/producto\/esse-mentol-mecanico-verde-super-slim\/\">ESSE Mentol (Verde Mec\u00e1nico) Super Slim<\/a><\/td>\n<td>The cool capsule switch<\/td>\n<td>A$149.50<\/td>\n<td>A$230.00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/producto\/esse-change-menta-ice-blast-4mg\/\">Esse Change Menta Ice Blast 4mg<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Strong mint for later hours<\/td>\n<td>A$149.50<\/td>\n<td>A$230.00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/producto\/esse-cambio-doble-manzana-menta-vino\/\">ESSE Cambio Vino Doble Menta Manzana<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Fruit-mint for weekends<\/td>\n<td>A$175.50<\/td>\n<td>A$270.00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/producto\/esse-cambio-doble-manzana-menta-naranja\/\">ESSE Change Doble Menta Naranja<\/a><\/td>\n<td>Brighter fruit finish<\/td>\n<td>A$175.50<\/td>\n<td>A$270.00<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>All figures are recorded from the product pages at the time of writing.<\/p>\n<h2>Where ESSE fits the wider city market<\/h2>\n<p>In the wider catalogue, ESSE holds the slim-and-light corner while full-flavour classics like Marlboro hold the traditional ground. For adults moving between light brands, the <a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/mevius-cigarettes-flavours-strength-smoothness-guide\/\">Mevius smoothness guide<\/a> is the closest point of comparison, the <a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/marlboro-cigarettes-australia-flavours-strength-guide\/\">Marlboro flavours and strength guide<\/a> shows the full-flavour side, and the <a href=\"https:\/\/soulssky.com\/es\/esse-cigarettes-australia-super-slim-range-guide\/\">ESSE super slim range guide<\/a> maps the five lines in one read. City shelves in the catalogue are organised by exactly these categories, so the guides mirror the aisle.<\/p>\n<h2>What the records show for the city<\/h2>\n<p>The records are consistent: every ESSE line is a 10-pack carton, the core lines sit at A$149.50 with a regular price of A$230.00, and the two Double Applemint lines sit at A$175.50 with a regular price of A$270.00. For adults in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane comparing across the catalogue, those two steps and the figures on each product page are all that is needed to benchmark the range.<\/p>\n<h2>City Life ESSE FAQ<\/h2>\n<h3>Why is the super-slim format popular in Australian cities?<\/h3>\n<p>It is familiar to the large Asian community, discreet in social settings, and the light draw suits modern preferences &mdash; a combination that keeps the format popular across Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.<\/p>\n<h3>How much is an ESSE carton in Australia?<\/h3>\n<p>The current record: A$149.50 per carton (regular A$230.00) for Lights, Menthol and Mint Ice Blast, and A$175.50 per carton (regular A$270.00) for the two Double Applemint lines.<\/p>\n<h3>Can one ESSE carton cover different moods?<\/h3>\n<p>The capsule lines can: smoke plain, then crush the capsule for a mint or fruit finish.
