A first perforated area 212P may be formed in the tipping wrapper 230 of the smoking article 200. In the first perforated area 212P, as shown in FIG. 4, the tipping wrapper 130 is double perforated, that is, a plurality of first holes 212P1 and the first holes 212P1 formed along the outer circumferential surface of the tipping wrapper 230. A plurality of second holes 212P2 formed along the outer peripheral surface of) may be provided, but is not limited thereto. For example, unlike in FIG. 4, only one of the plurality of first holes 212P1 and the plurality of second holes 212P2 may be provided in the first perforated area 212P (single perforation), or In addition to the plurality of first holes 212P1 and the plurality of second holes 212P2, additional holes may be further provided.

Each of the plurality of first holes 212P1 and the plurality of second holes 212P2 may be formed to be spaced apart at regular intervals along the outer peripheral surface of the tipping wrapper 130, but is not limited thereto.

The holes may be formed by an off-line perforation method, that is, a method of manufacturing a cigarette using the tipping wrapper 230 which is previously perforated in the tipping wrapper 230. Off-line perforation may be performed using a laser, but is not limited thereto.

Since the plurality of first holes 212P1 and/or the plurality of second holes 212P2 are formed, the porosity of the tipping wrapper 230 in the first perforated area 212P may be approximately 190 CU to 210 CU. In other words, the plurality of first holes 212P1 and/or the plurality of second holes 212P2 may be drilled to have a porosity of about 190 CU to 210 CU of the tipping wrapper 230. This means that if the tipping wrapper 230 is punched so that the porosity is less than about 190 CU, the practical benefit is less in terms of the effect of increasing the transition rate of the capsule contents, and if the tipping wrapper 230 is punched so that the porosity is about 210 CU or more, the first punching This is because mainstream smoke may leak through the area 212P.

In this way, holes are drilled off-line, and as the porosity of the tipping wrapper 230 in the first drilling area 212P is approximately 190CU to 210CU, the holes are formed only in the tipping wrapper 230 as shown in FIG. It does not extend to 116 and the first wrapper 112a. Accordingly, the first capsule 112c is crushed by the smoker so that the capsule contents discharged to the outside of the first capsule 112c can be better transferred to the smoker's hand, and holes are combined wrapper 116 And it is possible to prevent the mainstream smoke from leaking out of the smoking article 200 by not extending to the first wrapper (112a).

In some embodiments, the plurality of first holes 212P1 and the plurality of second holes 212P2 may have a separation distance 212Pw of approximately 1 mm to 3 mm. In other words, the plurality of first holes 212P1 may be positioned to be approximately 1 mm to 3 mm apart in the upstream direction from the plurality of second holes 212P2.

In some embodiments, the separation distance 212Pw of the plurality of first holes 212P1 and the plurality of second holes 212P2 of the first puncture region 212P is a plurality of first holes of the second puncture region 114P. It may be about 1.5 to 3 times (eg, 2 times) the separation distance 114Pw between the holes 114P1 and the plurality of second holes 114P2. As an example, the separation distance 212Pw may be approximately 2mm, and the separation distance 114Pw may be approximately 1mm, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

In some embodiments, the plurality of first holes 212P1 are positioned to be spaced apart from the upstream end of the tipping wrapper 230 by approximately 10 mm to 13 mm (212P_TEd), and the plurality of second holes 212P2 may include the second filter 114 ) May be positioned to be approximately 20mm to 23mm apart (212P_MEd) from the downstream end.

In some embodiments, the separation distance Per_D between the plurality of second holes 212P2 of the first puncture region 212P and the plurality of first holes 114P1 of the second puncture region 114P is approximately 9mm to 10mm. Can be

On the other hand, unlike the plurality of first holes 114P1 and the plurality of second holes 114P2 of the second puncture region 114P, the plurality of first holes 212P1 and the plurality of second holes of the first puncture region 212P 2 The holes 212P2 are located in an area overlapping with the first capsule 112c as shown in FIG. 4, so that the first capsule 112c is crushed by the smoker, and the capsule contents are discharged to the outside of the first capsule 112c. The liquid can be better delivered to the smoker's hands.

Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention and effects thereof will be described in more detail through examples and comparative examples. However, the present examples are for explaining the present invention more specifically, and the scope of the present invention is not limited to these examples.

Example 1

For example, the filter part of the cigarette prepared for testing was cut and separated. Cellulose acetate material including a first capsule containing mango flavor and surrounded by oil-resistant roll paper containing a first filter of a cellulose acetate material surrounded by non-oil-resistant roll paper and a second capsule containing applemint fragrance The second filter of was bonded to the tobacco material part using tip paper.

At this time, the used tip paper includes offline perforation in the area overlapping with the first capsule, and double perforation is formed at a position approximately 2 mm apart in the upstream direction of the second capsule through online perforation after combining the tip paper to smoke. The article was made.

Example 2

The same smoking article as in Example 1 was prepared, except that the tip paper in which the offline perforation was not formed in the area overlapping the first capsule was used.

Comparative Example 1

A smoking article similar to Example 2 was prepared, except that the oil-resistant roll-resistant paper was applied as the roll paper applied to the first filter.

Experimental Example 1: Analysis of the components before and after the first capsule crushing

In order to measure the effect of reducing hand odor when the filter according to the embodiment of the present invention is applied, changes in the sidestream smoke component in the first filter region occurring before and after crushing the first capsule were analyzed.

Table 1 shows examples 1, 2, and 1 for measuring changes in smoke (side smoke) components in the tipping wrapper area where the first filter 112 is located before and after crushing of the first capsule 112c. According to the specifications of smoking articles, Table 2 is a tipping wrapper area in which the first filter 112 is located before and after crushing of the first capsule 112c using smoking articles according to Examples 1, 2, and Comparative Example 1. It is the result of measuring the change of smoke component in In general smokers, when smoking, the tipping wrapper area where the first filter 112 is located, specifically, an area spaced approximately 15 mm to 30 mm in the upstream direction from the downstream end of the smoking article 100, and more specifically, the smoking article 100 Since a region spaced approximately 18mm to 27mm in the upstream direction from the downstream end of is gripped, the smoke component transmitted from the gripped area to the smoker's hand can be confirmed through the results of Table 2.

Example 1, Example 2, and Comparative Example 1 are all smoking articles having a length of about 100 mm in the upstream and downstream direction, a circumference of about 17 mm, and a tar content of about 2.0 mg, and specifications not shown in Table 1 are all under the same conditions. Smoking conditions were set to 55 ml of puff volume, 2 seconds of puff time, 20 seconds of puff cycle, and 12 puff counts, and the smoke component was measured at the location of the first filter 112. The smoke collected by wrapping a Cambridge filter pad (CFP) in the tipping wrappers 130 and 230 was analyzed by gas chromatography (GC). Nicotine, 3-Ethyl pyridine, 3-Ethenyl pyridine, Pyridine and Menthol components were measured through GC analysis, but 3-Ethyl pyridine and 3-Ethenyl pyridine values were excluded from Table 2 below as a limit of quantitation (LOQ). I did.

As shown in Table 2, by using the smoking articles according to Example 1, Example 2 and Comparative Example 1, the result of measuring the smoke component in the tipping wrappers 130 and 230 where the first filter 112 is located, In both Examples 1, 2 and Comparative Example 1, after crushing the first capsule 112c, the menthol content increased, and nicotine in the sidestream of the smoking article according to Examples 1, 2 and Comparative Example 1 It was reduced, and pyridine was reduced in the side smoke of smoking articles according to Example 2 and Comparative Example 1. Based on the results of Table 2, but considering the importance of the weight of nicotine as a cause of cigarette odor and the amount of menthol delivery that plays a role of masking odor, the first wrapper 112a is a general ticket paper (i.e., non-oil proof paper) It was expected that the effect of reducing hand odor due to smoking in Example 1 was double-perforated in an offline manner so that the porosity of the tipping wrapper 230 in the region where the first wrapper 112a is located is approximately 200 CU. . In addition, in the case of Example 2 in which the non-oil-resistant general wrapper was applied as the first wrapper 112a, compared to Comparative Example 1 in which the oil-resistant wrapper was applied as the first wrapper 112a, the delivery amount of menthol increased. Therefore, it was expected that the effect of reducing hand odor caused by smoking would be excellent.

Experimental Example 2: Sensory evaluation of the effect of reducing hand odor according to application of the first capsule

In order to find out the effect of reducing hand odor before and after crushing the capsules of the smoking article according to Example 1, sensory evaluation was conducted on the degree to which the smell of cigarettes and scents other than the smell of cigarettes were felt after smoking.

The sensory characteristics evaluation was performed on 10 evaluation panel members using the smoking article of Example 1, and was based on a total of 9 points.

5 is a result of evaluating sensory characteristics according to whether or not the first capsule is crushed of a smoking article according to Example 1 of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 5, as a result of analyzing the sensory characteristics expressed after smoking of the smoking article of Example 1 in which the first capsule was crushed and the smoking article of Example 1 in which the first capsule was not crushed, the first capsule was The degree of cigarette odor from the fingers after smoking of the crushed smoking article of Example 1 was reduced by about 59% compared to the case of the non-crushed smoking article, and the cigarette odor from the finger after smoking of the smoking article of Example 1 where the first capsule was crushed It was found that the degree of fragrance other than that was increased by approximately 208% compared to the case of uncrushed.

This is because the first capsule for reducing hand odor is included in the first filter, and smoking after crushing the first capsule is more than in the case where the first capsule is not crushed (that is, when the first capsule is not included). It means that the effect of reducing hand odor after smoking is superior.

Experimental Example 3: Sensory evaluation of the effect of reducing hand odor according to the application of the first filter perforation

To find out the effect of reducing hand odor according to the application of the first filter perforation of smoking articles, sensory evaluation of the degree to which the smoking article according to Examples 1 and 2 is felt after smoking and smells other than the smell of cigarettes Was carried out.

Sensory evaluation was conducted on 10 evaluation panel members using the smoking articles of Examples 1 and 2, based on a total of 9 points.

6 is a result of evaluating sensory properties according to whether or not double perforation is applied to the tipping wrapper on which the first filter is located.

As a result of analyzing the sensory characteristics expressed after smoking of the smoking article of Example 1 to which the double perforated structure was applied and the smoking article of Example 2 to which the double perforated structure was not applied, cigarette smell from the fingers after smoking as shown in FIG. There was no significant difference in the degree of. On the other hand, it was found that the degree of scent other than the cigarette odor from the fingers after smoking of the smoking article of Example 1 to which the double perforated structure was applied was increased by about 27% compared to the smoking article of Example 2 to which the double perforated structure was not applied.

This is difficult to see that the adoption of the perforated structure 212P described with reference to FIG. 4 removes or reduces the cigarette odor itself, but the flavor material contained in the first capsule is better transferred to the smoker's fingers by the perforated structure, It can be seen that the masking effect of the cigarette smell of the fingers can be improved.

Experimental Example 4: Analysis of components of mainstream smoke before and after capsule crushing

In order to measure the effect of reducing bad breath when the filter according to the embodiment of the present invention is applied, changes in the components of mainstream smoke before and after capsule crushing were analyzed.

Table 3 is a result of analyzing changes in mainstream smoke components before and after crushing of the first capsule 112c and the second capsule 114c included in the smoking article according to Example 1 of Table 1. Through the results of Table 3, it is possible to confirm the smoke components of mainstream smoke generated when smokers smoke, and through this, it is possible to infer the degree of reduction of cigarette odor from smokers' mouths.

division	TPM (mg/cig.)	Tar(mg/cig.)	Nic(mg/cig.)	Moisture (mg/cig.)	Menthol (mg/cig.)	TPM-moisture (mg/cig.)	Nic/(TPM-moisture)*100(%)	Menthol/(TPM-moisture) *100(%)

After crushing	1.75	1.58	0.09	0.07	0.29	1.68	5.4	17.3

As a result of analyzing the smoke component of mainstream smoke, the ratio of nicotine to the TPM (total particle materials) value excluding moisture after crushing of the first capsule 112c and the second capsule 114c was 5.4 from 7.2% after crushing of the capsule compared to before crushing of the capsule. %, and the ratio of menthol to the TPM value excluding moisture increased from 0% before crushing to 17.3%. On the other hand, the TPM (total particle materials) value after crushing of the first capsule 112c and the second capsule 114c. Was increased by about 75% compared to before crushing of the first capsule 112c and the second capsule 114c, and the tar value increased by about 77% compared to before crushing of the first capsule 112c and the second capsule 114c, This corresponds to an increase in menthol and other aromatics contained in the contents of the first capsule 112c and the second capsule 114c. That is, the first capsule 112c and the second capsule 114c are crushed and then in the TPM. As the ratio of nicotine to nicotine decreased and the ratio of menthol increased, the odor of cigarettes from the mouth of smokers decreased and the odor of cigarettes increased, indicating that there was a masking effect of the odor of cigarettes.

Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention and effects thereof will be described in more detail through examples and comparative examples according to the combination of the fragrance of the first capsule and the fragrance of the second capsule and whether they are crushed. However, the present examples are for explaining the present invention more specifically, and the scope of the present invention is not limited to these examples.

Example 3

For example, the filter part of the cigarette prepared for testing was cut and separated. Tobacco material cut using a tip paper to a first filter of a cellulose acetate material including a first capsule and surrounded by an oil-resistant wrapper and a second filter of cellulose acetate material including a second capsule and surrounded by an oil-resistant wrapper Bound to wealth.

Here, the first capsule contained mango flavor, the second capsule contained applemint flavor, and the experiment was performed in a state in which both the first capsule and the second capsule were crushed.

Example 4

The first capsule contained mango flavor, the second capsule contained orange flavor, and both the first capsule and the second capsule were crushed. For other conditions, the same smoking article as in Example 3 was used.

Example 5

The first capsule contained mango flavor, the second capsule contained strawberry flavor, and the experiment was conducted in a state in which both the first capsule and the second capsule were crushed. For other conditions, the same smoking articles as in Examples 3 and 4 were used.

Example 6

The first capsule contained mango flavor, the second capsule contained wine flavor, and both the first capsule and the second capsule were crushed. For other conditions, the same smoking articles as in Examples 3 to 5 were used.

Example 7

Mango flavor was included in each of the first capsule and the second capsule, and the experiment was conducted in a state in which both the first capsule and the second capsule were crushed. For other conditions, the same smoking articles as in Examples 3 to 6 were used.

Comparative Example 3

The same smoking article as in Example 3 was used, but the experiment was conducted in a state in which both the first capsule and the second capsule were not crushed. Since each of the first capsule and the second capsule has a structure in which the content solution containing the fragrance is covered with a film, the experiments related to fragrant substances in a state in which both the first capsule and the second capsule are not crushed are the first capsule and the second capsule. It may refer to an experiment related to flavors of smoking articles that do not contain all capsules.

Comparative Example 4

The same smoking article as in Example 3 was used, but the experiment was conducted in a state where only the first capsule was crushed and the second capsule was not crushed. For similar reasons as in Comparative Example 3, the experiment related to fragrant odors in a state in which only the first capsule was crushed and the second capsule was not crushed was performed on smoking articles containing only the first capsule and not including the second capsule. It can also mean related experiments.

Comparative Example 5

The same smoking article as in Example 3 was used, but the experiment was conducted in a state in which only the second capsule was crushed and the first capsule was not crushed. For similar reasons, an experiment related to fragrant substances in a state in which only the second capsule is crushed and the first capsule is not crushed may mean an experiment related to fragrant substances of smoking articles containing only the second capsule and not including the first capsule. have.

On the other hand, in Experimental Examples 5 to 7 to be described later, a cellulose acetate filter in which the fragrance material was not flavored was used as the second filter of each smoking article in Examples 3 to 7, but a filter in which the fragrance material was flavored as the second filter, For example, when a TJNS filter is used, the effect of reducing breath and hand odor, which will be described later, is expected to be more excellent. The TJNS filter is, for example, a filter flavored with any one selected from among mango flavor, wine flavor, mojito lime flavor, apple mint flavor, orange flavor, strawberry flavor, green apple herb flavor, apple mango flavor, and sweet mango flavor. I can.

In some embodiments, the second filter of the smoking article may be a TJNS filter flavored with a green apple herb flavor. Preferably, the second filter may be a TJNS filter in which approximately 2 mg to 8 mg of green apple herb flavor per filter (ie, per cigarette) is flavored. More preferably, the second filter may be a TJNS filter in which about 2.5 mg to 3.5 mg of green apple herb flavor per filter is aromatized.

Experimental Example 5: Analysis of whether or not the capsule is crushed and the components of sidestream smoke by perfume in the capsule

In order to measure the effect of reducing hand odor when the filter according to the embodiments of the present invention is applied, the components of smoke (sidestream smoke) in the first filter area generated before and after the crushing of the first and second capsules were analyzed for each fragrance. .

Table 4 shows the types of flavors in the capsules and whether or not they are crushed of smoking articles according to Examples 3 to 7 and Comparative Examples 3 to 5. Table 5 is a measurement result of the menthol content in the sidestream smoke component in the tipping wrapper region where the first filter of smoking articles according to Examples 3 to 7 and Comparative Examples 3 to 5 is located, and Tables 6 to 11 are Comparative Examples 3 and It is a measurement result showing the names and detection amounts of scent-expressing components excluding menthol among the components of class smoke of smoking articles according to Examples 3 to 7.

In general smokers, when smoking, the tipping wrapper area where the first filter is located, specifically, an area spaced approximately 15 mm to 30 mm in the upstream direction from the downstream end of the smoking article, and more specifically, approximately 18 mm in the upstream direction from the downstream end of the smoking article. Since the area separated by 27 mm is held, it is possible to confirm the smoke component transmitted to the smoker's hand in the gripped area through the results of Tables 5 and 6 to 11.

Examples 3 to 7 and Comparative Examples 3 to 5 are smoking articles having a length of about 100 mm in an upstream and downstream direction, a circumference of about 17 mm, and a tar content of about 2.0 mg, and the first filter including the first capsule is oil-resistant. The second filter, which was surrounded by unused wrapper, and including the second capsule, was surrounded by oil-resistant wrapper. The used tip paper includes an offline perforation in the area overlapping with the first capsule, and a double perforation is formed at a position approximately 2mm apart in the upstream direction of the second capsule through online perforation after the tip paper is combined to produce smoking articles. Became. All other specifications not shown in Table 4 were performed under the same conditions. Smoking conditions were set to 55 ml of puff volume, 2 seconds of puff time, 20 seconds of puff cycle, and 12 puff counts. The smoke component was measured by wrapping CFP in a tipping wrapper on which the first filter was located, and repeated five times for each sample. After smoking, CFP was put in a glass bottle and extracted with methanol (MeOH), followed by GC analysis. Menthol and Furaneol components related to hand odor reduction were measured except for Nicotine, Pyridine, 3-Ethyl pyridine, and 3-Ethenyl pyridine, which are the main components that cause hand odor through GC analysis, but the furaneol component was found to be no data. Excluded in Table 5 below.

As shown in Table 5, approximately 26 ug/cig in all of Examples 3-7. To 33 ug/cig. The level of menthol content was shown, and a menthol content of about 13 to 17 times compared to Comparative Example 3 (i.e., the first and second capsules were not crushed) was detected. In consideration of the importance of the amount of menthol delivery that plays a role of masking cigarette odor, When looking at the results of Table 5, in all of Examples 3 to 7 in which both the first capsule and the second capsule were crushed, both the first capsule and the second capsule were not crushed (Comparative Example 3) and only one of them was crushed. In comparison with the cases (Comparative Examples 4 and 5), the effect of masking hand odor due to smoking was expected to increase. In particular, in Example 1, in which the fragrance of the first capsule is mango flavor and the fragrance of the second capsule is apple mint, the hand odor masking effect is expected to be the most excellent. The following analysis of fragrance-expressing components other than menthol among the components of Bulyuyeon In Tables 6 to 11, components that were not detected in Comparative Example 3 in which the first capsule and the second capsule were not crushed (D-Limonene, 1-Hexanol, 3-Hexen-1-ol (Z)-, Decanoic acid , methyl ester, Geranyl Alcohol, 1,6-0ctadien-3-ol,3,7-dimethyl-, 2(3H)-Furanone,5-hexyldi hydro-) through crushing of the first capsule and the second capsule It was confirmed that it was delivered to the outside of the tipping wrapper, and that it could be delivered to the smoker's hand to express a cigarette odor masking effect.

Furthermore, sensory evaluation may have different results depending on various factors, but looking at the sensory evaluation results in Experimental Example 7 considering only the analysis results of the fragrance expression components in Tables 6 to 11, 2(3H)- When the furanone,5-hexyldihydro- component contains more than the 1,6-0ctadien-3-ol,3,7-dimethyl- component, or when the 1-Hexanol component is more than the Decanoic acid, methyl ester component It can be expected that it shows superiority in numerical values for the refreshing sensation during smoking, clean aftertaste during smoking, overall satisfaction after smoking, and the degree of smell of finger cigarettes after smoking.

Experimental Example 6: Whether the capsule is crushed and the collection and analysis of halitosis by perfume in the capsule In order to measure the effect of reducing bad breath when the filter according to the embodiments of the present invention is applied, each perfume and before and after the first and second capsules are crushed. Halitosis was collected and analyzed, and Table 12 shows the analysis results according to Examples 3 to 7 and Comparative Examples 3 to 5.

Halitosis collection was performed 5 times for each example targeting a total of 5 smokers, and the interval was set to 30 minutes. Halitosis collection was performed after each smoker squeezed for 2 minutes after smoking, and the collected smoke was sampled in a 3L Tedler bag for TD (thermal desorber)/GC (gas chromatography)- PFPD (pulsed flame photometric detector) analysis. The analysis was conducted on H ₂ S (Hydrogen Sulfide), MM (Methyl Mercaptan), DMS (Di-Methyl Sulfide) and DMDS (Di-Methyl Di-Sulfide), which are the main components that cause bad breath. ₂ S, DMS, and DMDS were excluded from Table 12 because of difficulty in deriving significant results, such as detection at concentrations below the threshold level. Table 12 shows MM (methyl also called methanethiol) for each example. It refers to mercaptan, and hereinafter, for convenience of description, the result of measuring the threshold index (TI) of methyl mercaptan) is presented. The TI was calculated by dividing the median value (Median) of the five measurement values for each example by a threshold value (0.07 ppb).

As shown in Table 12, the TI values of methylmercaptan in Examples 3, 4, 6, and 7 of the examples in which both the first and second capsules were crushed were first and second. It was detected lower than the TI value of methylmercaptan in Comparative Example 3 in which all capsules were not crushed. Accordingly, in the case where both the first and second capsules are crushed, the effect of reducing methylmercaptan generally tends to appear compared to the case where neither the first nor second capsules are crushed, or only one of them is crushed.

On the other hand, it was confirmed that the effect of reducing the methylmercaptan was expressed and maximized by the interaction by an appropriate combination of the first and second capsules, rather than simply being expressed by capsule crushing using fruit-based flavors. This is because even if both the first and second capsules are crushed, in the cases of Examples 4 and 5, the effect of reducing methylmercaptan did not appear to be a significant value, or the TI value of methylmercaptan was rather increased.

In all of Example 3 (first capsule = mango, second capsule = applemint), Example 6 (first capsule = mango, second capsule = wine) and Example 7 (first and second capsule = mango) , Compared to Comparative Example 3 (first and second capsule uncrushed), the effect of reducing the amount of methylmercaptan was approximately 30% or more, and the effect of reducing the amount of methylmercaptan in Example 3 was the most excellent. Methyl mercaptan is an organic sulfur compound that gives off odors such as rotten cabbage mainly found in peanuts, cheese, radish, etc., Example 3 (first capsule = mango, second capsule = applemint), Example 6 (first capsule = In the case of mango, second capsule = wine) and smoking articles according to Example 7 (first and second capsule = mango), it is expected that the effect of reducing bad breath due to smoking will be excellent, and slightly less bad breath in Example 3 The effect was expected to be the best.

Experimental Example 7: Sensory evaluation during and after smoking according to Examples 3 to 7 and Comparative Examples 3 to 5

Sensory evaluation was conducted for the intensity of aroma, refreshing sensation, aroma satisfaction, and clean aftertaste of smoking articles for each example, overall satisfaction after smoking, the degree of cigarette odor on the fingers, and the degree of aroma other than the cigarette scent on the fingers.

The sensory evaluation was conducted on 60 evaluation panel members using the smoking articles of Examples 3 to 7 and Comparative Examples 3 to 5, and was based on a total of 7 points.

Table 13 is a result of evaluation of sensory properties of smoking articles according to Examples 3 to 7 and Comparative Examples 3 to 5 of the present invention, and FIGS. 7 to 13 are according to Examples 3 to 7 and Comparative Examples 3 to 5 of the present invention. These are diagrams showing the sensory characteristics evaluation results of smoking articles in a graph by item.

As shown in Table 13 and FIG. 7, the scent intensity during smoking in the smoking articles of Examples 3 to 7 in which both the first and second capsules were crushed regardless of the type of fragrance, was in both the first and second capsules. It was found that it was not crushed or increased compared to Comparative Examples 3 to 5 in which only one was crushed. In the case of Examples 3 to 7 in which both the first and second capsules were crushed, it was increased by approximately 50% or more compared to the Comparative Example in which both the first and second capsules were not crushed, compared to Comparative Example 4 in which only the first capsule was crushed. It was increased by more than 40%, and a value equal to or higher than that of Comparative Example 5 in which only the second capsule was crushed. It was confirmed that the influence of the crushing of the first capsule (Comparative Example 4) on the scent intensity during smoking was somewhat insignificant. It can be seen that the second capsule has a greater influence than the first capsule. Comparing the results for each flavor of Examples 3 to 7, the scent intensity during smoking was found to be the best when the second capsule had a wine scent. Next, it was found that the second capsule was excellent in the case of applemint flavor or mango flavor.

As shown in Table 13 and FIG. 8, it was confirmed that the refreshing sensation during smoking shows a tendency that is generally similar to the scent intensity during smoking. That is, the cooling sensation of smoking in the smoking articles of Examples 3 to 7 in which both the first and second capsules were shredded regardless of the type of fragrance, compared to not shredding all the first and second capsules or only one of them. Compared to Examples 3 to 5, it was found to be generally increased. Likewise, it was confirmed that the influence of the first capsule crushing (Comparative Example 4) on the cooling sensation during smoking showed a somewhat insignificant tendency, and it was confirmed that the influence of the second capsule was greater than that of the first capsule.

Comparing the results for each flavor of Examples 3 to 7, it was found that the cooling sensation during smoking was excellent when the second capsule had wine flavor or apple mint flavor.

As shown in Table 13 and FIG. 9, it was found that the scent satisfaction during smoking did not have a biased dependence on either of the first and second capsules.

It was confirmed that in Examples 3 to 7 in which both the first and second capsules were crushed, a higher score than in Comparative Examples 3 to 5 in which neither the first and second capsules were crushed, or only one of them was crushed. .

Regarding the degree of satisfaction with scent during smoking, it was confirmed that the difference in numerical values for each type of flavor was slightly insignificant.

As shown in Table 13 and FIG. 10, the aftertaste of smoking in the smoking articles of Examples 3 to 7 in which both the first and second capsules were crushed regardless of the type of fragrance, was obtained from the first and second capsules. It was found that it was increased compared to Comparative Examples 3 to 4 in which all were not crushed or only the first capsule was crushed. With respect to the neatness of the aftertaste during smoking, it can be seen that the influence of the second capsule is greater than that of the first capsule.

Comparing the results for each flavor of Examples 3 to 7, the cleanness of the aftertaste during smoking was found to be the best when the second capsule had applemint flavor, and then it was found to be excellent when the second capsule had wine flavor.

On the other hand, with respect to the neatness of the aftertaste during smoking, in the case of Comparative Example 4 in which only the first capsule was crushed, a slightly lower value was obtained than in Comparative Example 3 in which both the first and second capsules were not crushed. And even when all of the second capsules are crushed, it was confirmed that the numerical value may be rather lower than when only the second capsule is crushed depending on the type of fragrance (Examples 4, 5, and 7). Through this, the neatness of the aftertaste during smoking is expected to have a greater influence due to the interaction of the fragrance combinations of the first and second capsules than the influence on whether the first and second capsules are crushed.

It was confirmed that the combination of flavorings in Example 3, wherein the first and second capsules are mango and applemint flavors, and Example 6, wherein the first and second capsules are mango and wine flavors, respectively, exhibits a synergistic effect in clean aftertaste.

As shown in Table 13 and FIG. 11, it was confirmed that the overall satisfaction level after smoking shows a tendency that is generally similar to the neatness of the aftertaste during smoking. Regardless of the type of fragrance, the cleanliness of the aftertaste during smoking in the smoking articles of Examples 3 to 7 in which both the first and second capsules were shredded, was not shredded or only one of the first and second capsules was shredded. It was found to be increased compared to Comparative Examples 3 to 5.

Comparing the results for each flavor of Examples 3 to 7, it was found that the overall satisfaction after smoking was also the best in the case where the second capsule had applemint flavor, similar to the neatness of the aftertaste during smoking. It has been shown to be excellent in cases.

As shown in Table 13 and FIG. 12, the degree of smell of finger cigarettes after smoking in the smoking articles of Examples 3 to 7 in which both the first and second capsules were crushed regardless of the type of fragrance, was the first and second capsules. It was found that it was increased compared to Comparative Examples 3 and 5 in which neither was crushed or only the second capsule was crushed. With respect to the degree of finger cigarette smell after smoking, it can be confirmed that the influence of the first capsule is much greater than that of the second capsule. Accordingly, it was confirmed that the masking effect of the smell of finger cigarettes was not substantially observed by crushing only the second capsule without crushing the first capsule.

Comparing the results for each flavor of Examples 3 to 7, the degree of smell of cigarette fingers after smoking was relatively superior to the case where the second capsule had an apple mint flavor, strawberry flavor, wine flavor, or mango flavor than when the second capsule had orange flavor. Appeared.

As shown in Table 13 and FIG. 13, in the smoking articles of Examples 3 to 7 in which both the first and second capsules were crushed regardless of the type of fragrance, the degree of aroma other than the smell of finger cigarettes after smoking was first and second. Compared to Comparative Example 3 in which all the two capsules were not crushed, it was found to be significantly increased. On the other hand, in Examples 3 to 7 in which both the first and second capsules were crushed and Comparative Examples 4 and 5 in which only one of the first and second capsules were crushed, no significant difference was observed.

Considering that the effect of reducing cigarette odor from fingers in Comparative Example 5 in which only the second capsule was crushed as viewed in FIG. 12 was not substantially exhibited, it was found that the tobacco odor masking effect may not be exhibited by simply scenting the fingers. Can be expected.

Comparing the results of each fragrance of Examples 3 to 7, the degree of fragrance other than the smell of finger cigarettes after smoking was found to be the best when the second capsule had a wine fragrance. In consideration of the results of FIG. 12 together, it can be seen that when the second capsule has an apple mint flavor, the degree of fragrance other than the smell of finger cigarettes after smoking is less than that of other flavors, but the effect of reducing the smell of finger cigarettes after smoking is the most excellent.
