The invention relates to a cartridge (10) for an aerosol-generating device. The cartridge comprises a downstream end comprising a fluid outlet (22) and an upstream end comprising an air inlet (16). The cartridge further comprises a liquid storage portion (12) arranged between the downstream end and the upstream end. The liquid storage portion comprises a liquid sensorial media (14). The cartridge further comprises a diffuser (20). The diffuser is arranged downstream of the air inlet. The invention further relates to a kit comprising at least two cartridges and to an aerosol-generating device.

The invention relates to an aerosol-generating device (10) comprising a top portion (20), a main portion (70), and a cartridge (50). The top portion comprises a proximal end comprising a cavity (22) for receiving an aerosol-generating article (12). The top portion further comprises a distal end comprising a top cartridge connector (24) and a top airflow channel extending from the top cartridge connector to the cavity. The main portion comprises a proximal end comprising a main cartridge connector (72). The main portion furthers comprises a main air inlet and a main airflow channel extending from the main air inlet to the main cartridge connector. The top cartridge connector is removably attachable to a proximal end of the cartridge and the main cartridge connector is removably attachable to a distal end of the cartridge enabling a first mode of operation. The top cartridge connector is directly removably attachable to the main cartridge connector enabling a second mode of operation.

The present disclosure relates to a non-combustible aerosol provision system comprising an aerosol modifying component, an aerosol generating material and a heater which, in use, is operable to heat the aerosol generating material such that the aerosol generating material provides an aerosol. The aerosol modifying component is downstream of the aerosol generating material and comprises first and second capsules. The first capsule is in a first portion of the aerosol modifying component, wherein the first portion of the aerosol modifying component is heated to a first temperature during operation of the heater to generate the aerosol. The second capsule is in a second portion of the aerosol modifying component located downstream of the first portion, wherein the second portion is heated to a second temperature during operation of the heater to generate aerosol, and wherein the second temperature is at least 4 degrees Celsius lower than the first temperature.

An aerosol-generating device is disclosed. The aerosol-generating device includes a first container accommodating an aerosol-generating substance, a heater heating the aerosol-generating substance, a second container configured to be rotatable and including chambers, a rotation detection sensor sensing rotation of the second container, and a controller. The controller determines any one of the chambers to be an application chamber through which an aerosol passes based on a signal received from the rotation detection sensor, and determines usage of a chamber determined to be the application chamber. The heater is heated to a first temperature or higher when the usage is equal to or greater than a first reference and less than a second reference, and is heated to a second temperature or higher when the usage is equal to or greater than the second reference and less than a third reference. The second temperature is higher than the first temperature.
