Abstract: The invention relates to a smoke-free cigarette, which provides the user with just nicotine and no toxic and/or carcinogenic compounds. The cigarette comprises two pieces, a reusable piece with a thermoplastic sleeve with a deposited heat-reflecting coating, an air inlet opening and a heat source mounted in the sleeve such that air flow channels are created with a star-shaped or wave-shaped form; and an exchangeable non-reusable piece with a nicotine and aroma deposit, a filter and optionally a nicotine meter and usage display. The heat released by the heat source heats the air sucked through the air-flow channels by the consumer and passes through the deposit such as to release the nicotine and aromas present in the deposit which, after passing through the filter may be consumed by the smoker.
