An aerosol provision device is provided. The device defines a longitudinal axis, and comprises a first coil and a second coil. The first coil is configured to heat a first section of a heater component, the heater component being configured to heat aerosol generating material to generate an aerosol. The second coil is configured to heat a second section of the heater component. The first coil has a first length along the longitudinal axis and the second coil has a second length along the longitudinal axis, the first length being shorter than the second length. The first coil is adjacent the second coil in a direction along the longitudinal axis. In use, the aerosol is drawn along a flow path of the device towards a proximal end of the device, and the first coil is arranged closer to the proximal end of the device than the second coil.
