all-important Explanation: Because it is an ad promoting a cigarette brand, "kritis" would probably mean "critical" in a positive sense, such as "all-important" or its synonyms "high priority, pressing, significant, strategic, urgent, vital, weighty." |

analytical Explanation: My understanding of the term in this context, kritis = analytical Oxford, analytical = using a logical method of thinking about something in order to understand it, especially by looking at all the parts separately. Thus, it denotes a smoker that is smart and does not just take everything for granted. |
