Terea Pearl Explained: How the Capsule Works and Every Pearl Flavor

Short answer: a Terea Pearl stick has a small flavor capsule inside the filter. Use it as it is for the base taste, or squeeze the filter until it clicks to release extra flavor. We stock seven Pearl flavors — Tidal, Sun, Starling, Provence, Twilight, Oasis and Riviera — across five editions, from AED 120 per carton.

How a Pearl capsule works

  1. Insert the stick into your ILUMA device as normal; heating starts automatically.
  2. For the base taste, simply use it.
  3. To release the capsule flavor, squeeze the filter between your fingers until you feel a click — before you start or part-way through.
  4. Once clicked, the capsule cannot be undone.

That gives you two experiences from one pack. Many people try a few sticks both ways before deciding which they prefer.

Pearl vs regular sticks

A Pearl stick fits and heats exactly like any other Terea stick. The only difference is the capsule. If you do not want to think about clicking, a non-capsule flavor in the same style is simpler: Turquoise instead of Tidal Pearl, Summer Wave instead of Sun Pearl, Bronze instead of Twilight Pearl.

Storage tip for the UAE

Keep Pearl packs out of direct sun and never in a parked car. Heat can affect the tobacco and the capsule.
