I am going to guess that you are talking about a Cartier cigarette lighter.
This is a photo of mine.
I use Zippo butane, but any high quality butane is acceptable.
It is easy to find an adapter to fit the nozzle on the bottom.
Be certain the lighter is upside down, with the bottom of the lighter facing up, and the butane is being pressed down into the lighter, so the butane nozzle is pointing straight down.
The lighter will get cold as it fills with butane.
A burst of 5 seconds should be sufficient
