This is absolutely wrong[1]. Please don't spread dangerous falsehoods without researching first.
Even American Spirit's website denies that "organic" or natural tobacco is any safer.

As far as I can tell, that page never actually tries to answer "Are "all-natural" cigarettes less harmful than ones with additives?".
Neither are healthy for you, yes, we get that, but the question is if one is slightly less unhealthy?
This is the settlement that Natural American Spirit had to agree to because they couldn't provide evidence that additive-free cigarettes are any safer:

These are not the same thing
It's likely safer but not meaningfully enough to make much difference, as it's still obviously very bad for you
There's no evidence that it's safer at all. Reynolds lost a big lawsuit over its American Spirit brand implying that their cigarettes are safer. If they could have provided evidence to the contrary, they would have.

The thousands of "chemicals" from cigarettes are not put in there. They come from combustion. Setting shit on fire makes chemicals turn into other chemicals, some of them very harmful. That's why many survivors of 9/11 later died from lung cancer.
