Disclosed are embossed, multi-ply tissue products having differing texture on each of their first and second outer surfaces. The difference in texture may be measured using a Tissue Softness Analyzer and the second side may have a TS750 value that is about five times greater than the TS750 value of the first side. The differing texture may be imparted by different embossing patterns disposed on the first and second surfaces where the embossments forming the second pattern are oriented such that they protrude outwardly away from the second surface. Despite having differing textures, the products are generally soft, such as having an Average TS7 value less than about 12.0 and have good sheet bulk, such as a sheet bulk greater than about 10.0 cubic centimeters per gram (cc/g).
An embossed multi-ply tissue product comprising a first embossed tissue ply and a second embossed tissue ply arranged in facing relation and defining an interior portion there between, a plurality of first embossments disposed on the first ply and arranged in a first pattern, the plurality of first embossments oriented towards the interior portion of the product and a plurality of second embossments disposed on the second ply and arranged in a second pattern, the second embossments oriented away from the interior portion of the product, wherein the first and second patterns differ and the second ply has a TS750 value that is at least about five times greater than the TS750 value of the first ply.
An embossed multi-ply tissue product having a first and a second outer surface and an interior portion therebetween, the product comprising:
