Abstract
The present invention provides a flavor inhaler includes a flavor releasing unit provided with at least one holding part for storing a flavor component and an aerosol-forming substrate, an aerosol generation part for generating an aerosol containing the flavor component from the contents of the holding part, and a flavor providing part configured to direct the aerosol generated by the aerosol generation part to a user, a speaker unit provided with an oscillator for generating a sound wave and a speaker interface for transmitting the sound wave from the oscillator to the user's skull, and a controller for controlling the flavor releasing unit and the speaker unit so that generation of the aerosol and generation of the sound wave are in coordination with each other.
