Abstract: The invention relates to an aerosol-generating system comprising a main unit and a replaceable mouthpiece. The main unit comprises a heating element for heating an aerosol-forming substrate. The mouthpiece comprising an outlet channel. The mouthpiece and the main unit have corresponding structural components with complementary geometrical shapes. When the mouthpiece is connected to the main unit, the corresponding structural components of the mouthpiece and the main unit define an inlet channel. The inlet channel and the outlet channel form an airflow path from an air inlet to an air outlet via the heating element.
