I was lucky enough to try some paan at lunch today. My understanding of this is that it's basically a Betel leaf wrapped around some sugar soaked rose petals. This one at least was very flavorful, to the point that I'm glad that I didn't put the whole thing in my mouth like is the accepted style. I got a flavor explosion of floral rose when I chomped down on it. Took 3 bites for me.
The wikipedia definition of south Indian style paan seems to be pretty accurate to what we had.
