A flavoring device includes a three-dimensional shape with a surface enclosing an inner volume, wherein the surface includes a first part directed outwardly of the three-dimensional shape and a second part being the lateral area of a cylindrically shaped hole protruding through the flavoring device, wherein the flavoring device includes a frame arranged at the surface of the three-dimensional shape and framing the inner volume at least in part, wherein the flavoring material is arranged within the frame, wherein the frame and the flavoring material are permeable to an air flow directed from a surrounding of the flavoring device through the first part of the surface, through the inner volume, thereby interacting with the flavoring material, and through the second part of the surface into the hole, in which the smoking article is arrangeable. The device includes the shape of a hollow cylinder having airflow-permeable inner and outer lateral areas.
