I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'flavoured bulb' is the definition.
'garlic' can be an answer for 'bulb' (garlic is a type of bulb). I am not certain of the 'flavoured' bit.

'ingredient of cigar licence' is the wordplay.
'ingredient of' indicates a hidden word.
'GARLIC' is hidden within 'cigar licence'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for garlic that I've seen before include "Culinary bulb" , "Aioli ingredient" , "Bulb used in cooking" , "Pungent root" , "Plant of the onion family" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
