Is it animated? A Bill Plympton film perhaps.

Yes! Forgot to mention that it kinda looked like Claymation, but it could also be a Plympton kind of surrealistic short.
Star light, star bright, First star I see tonight
This is from something I saw on TV back when I was less than 5 years old (which means it's an early 2000 short film (or a rerun of something older), so maybe it's something I dreamed up, but maybe it's true, who knows:
It's a short film set in a white background. It features a nose which keeps on moving forward and sniffs different things, mostly for humourous effect. At the end, I do believe he sniffs tobacco (or cocaine) and dies.
One last thing I remember (but watch out, it could be misleading) is Woody Allen being affiliated to that short. I don't know why, I keep thinking of him when I try to remember that short film.
