By comparing relevant expressions in Chinese and Kuchean(Tocharian B) Buddhist texts, Kuchean medical/magical texts and Kuchean monastic accounts, this paper proves the meaning of tuñe as a general term for perfumes instead of previous solutions, e.g. "a kind of flower" or "lotus". Generally this word signifies an important category of offering other than blossoming flowers(pyapyo), and in certain environments it denotes fragrant substances other than bdellium, an oleo-gum resin traded on the Silk Road. The paintings and captions surviving in the Kumtura Cave No.50 confirm this solution by depicting this kind of offering variously such as incense, fragrant powder or liquid fragrance.
