  • the flavor composition described above contains a low HLB emulsifier, it is non-flowable at room temperature, for example, 22°C. For this reason, when the flavorant composition described above is applied to the constituent members of tobacco products, the flavorant composition, specifically, the liquid component of the flavorant composition, is less likely to seep out into the constituent members.
  • Low HLB emulsifiers form a network in the flavor composition. This network structure has relatively large meshes, for example meshes with a maximum mesh diameter of several microns, and is believed to retain the components of the flavor composition other than the low HLB emulsifier within this meshwork.

  • One of the reasons why the release amount of the flavoring agent is decreased is considered as follows.
  • the flavorant composition has flowability, the flavorant composition spreads over the components of the tobacco product and has a large contact area with fluid such as air. Accordingly, the flavorant contained in the flavorant composition is likely to be released into fluids such as air. Therefore, much of the flavoring agent is released at a low number of puffs. Thus, the amount of flavoring agent released decreases with the number of puffs.
  • the release amount of the flavor according to the number of puffs is less likely to decrease during sucking. That is, the flavor inhaling article containing the above-described flavorant composition shows little change in the amount of flavorant released depending on the number of puffs.
  • One of the reasons why the change in the release amount of the flavoring agent is small is considered to be as follows.
  • the flavor composition described above is non-flowing. Therefore, the flavorant composition described above does not spread over the constituent members of the tobacco product and has a small contact area with fluid such as air, as compared with the flavorant composition according to the comparative example.
  • the flavor is held in the network structure described above.
  • the flavoring agent contained in the flavoring composition described above is less likely to be released into a fluid such as air as compared with the flavoring composition according to the comparative example.
