Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2020200808A1] A filter (14) for an aerosol generating article is disclosed. The filter comprises a first end (141) for attachment to an aerosol generating article; a second end (142) which is a mouth end which can be received in the mouth of a user; and tipping paper (18) wrapped around the filter. The tipping paper provides four haptic regions (143, 144) which provide different touch experiences for a user's lips at the mouth end, wherein first and second haptic regions provide a first touch experience and third and fourth haptic regions provide a second touch experience. Rotation of the filter allows different haptic regions to contact the user's lips, and haptic regions arranged on opposing sides of the filter may provide a same or different touch experience for both the upper and lower lip of the user.
