The air-permeable sealing member 52 is highly-permeable paper, and there is no need to perforate the air-permeable sealing member 52.

[0062] The air-permeable sealing member 52 can also be perforated to increase air permeability, but a diameter of a hole should be smaller than a diameter of functional material particles in the hollow cylinder 51 to prevent the smoke-generating material particles from scattering, as shown in FIG. 3.
