According to my views, both sanity and smoke are preliminary stage of testing before proceeding for full blown testing of a particular release or build of an application.
Sanity testing: Ensures that whether the basic supported features of an existing application is working and not affected with new changes.
Smoke Testing: This can be describe as let's say there are 10 new features introduced in a build or release, so in order to test each 10 features to finer level requires initial stage to be passed.
E.g. In a new feature there are some more search criteria added to an existing search page:
In sanity testing tester would ensure that search with any of the existing field is working
And In smoke testing tester would feed correct expected data in newly added field and perform search to make sure that correct result appears and if correct results not appears then testing of that feature can be stopped and appropriate action can be taken.
