A smoking article (2, 40, 50, 60) having a mouth end and a distal end, the smoking article (2, 40, 50, 60) comprises: a combustible carbonaceous heat source (4); an aerosol-forming substrate (6); at least one air inlet (32) downstream of the aerosol-forming substrate (6); an airflow pathway extending between the at least one air inlet (32) and the mouth end of the smoking article (2, 40, 50 and 60); and an airflow directing element (8) downstream of the aerosol-forming substrate (6). The airflow directing element (8) defines a first portion of the airflow pathway extending from the at least one air inlet (32) towards the aerosol-forming substrate (6) and a second portion of the airflow pathway extending downstream from the first portion towards the mouth end of the smoking article (2, 40, 50, 60). The airflow directing element (8) comprises an aerosol-modifying agent. |
