Publication number: 20250143382Abstract: An inhalation stick that looks like a traditional tobacco cigarette and mimics the feel of a traditional tobacco cigarette both in the hand and on the mouth. The inhalation stick has a cartridge assembly and a filter that are linearly aligned and are wrapped in traditional tipping paper. The cartridge assembly includes a tube. Scented bodies, in the form of menthol crystals and/or scented oils, are inside the tube. When an individual inhales through the inhalation stick, the volatiles from the menthol crystals and/or scented oil are released into the inhaled air. This scents the inhaled air and provides taste and smell to the inhaled air. Accordingly, the fingers, lips, taste buds and olfactory senses all are provided with sensory inputs that mimic the smoking of a cigarette. This sensory input is sufficient to trick the subconscious mind and satisfy one's craving to smoke.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 23, 2024Publication date: May 8, 2025Inventor: Lora Placik
