The name of Marlboro cigarettes is a combination of the first letters of several words, "Man Always Remember Love Because of Romance Only".

When a man was young, he was very poor. Although he loved her, the girl's parents did not allow them to get married. The girl could only marry someone else. On the day of farewell, the boy asked the girl to spend a pack of cigarettes with him, and the girl agreed. So, while the boy smoked, he recalled the girl's love past with him.

The girl left him, and the boy later became the owner of a cigarette factory. He named the cigarettes produced in his factory Marlboro. The boy took this name to commemorate his lost love, and this time of love became an eternal moment that lingered in his life.
