Consider TEREA Flavor Compatibility

Stick Compatibility for Blue IQOS ILUMA Devices

• TEREA Only (No HEETS): All blue devices—from the original ILUMA One Azure Blue to the newest ILUMA i Prime Breeze Blue—work only with TEREA sticks. TEREA contains the metal element needed for the bladeless induction system. Do not use older HEETS sticks, as they won’t heat properly and can damage the device.

Flavor Pairing Suggestions

• ILUMA i Prime (Breeze Blue): Its rich metallic color pairs well with premium flavors. Try TEREA Blue (intense menthol) or TEREA Rich Regular (full-bodied tobacco) for a sophisticated experience.
• ILUMA One (Travel-Friendly): For on-the-go use, TEREA Amber or TEREA Smooth Regular offer a balanced and satisfying flavor.

Check Availability & Pricing in UAE

The pricing structure in the UAE reflects the device’s tier and features.

Device Tier	Expected Price Range (AED)	Notes on Availability
ILUMA One	AED 170 – 450	Widely available, excellent value. Azure is core, Stardrift is limited.
ILUMA Standard	AED 280 – 400	Good mid-range option. Azure is core, limited editions (Stardrift, We) vary.
ILUMA i Series	AED 210 – 400	Highest price tier, reflecting new technology (Touchscreen, Pause Mode). Breeze Blue is currently the primary option for these smart features.

Tips for Tourists: Always purchase from authorized stores, such as official IQOS kiosks in major malls, or trusted online retailers to ensure your device is genuine and covered by a UAE warranty. Very low prices are usually a sign of counterfeit products—avoid them.
