+:class:`Symfony\\Component\\HttpFoundation\\Cookie` as an argument. This class
+takes seven arguments in its constructor:
+
+``$name``
+    **type**: ``string`` **default**: none (this argument is mandatory)
+
+    The name of the cookie.
+
+``$value``
+    **type**: ``string`` **default**: ``null``
+
+    The value stored in the cookie.
+
+``$expire``
+    **type**: ``int`` | ``string`` | ``DateTime`` | ``DateTimeInterface`` **default**: 0
+
+    The time the cookie expires. This value can be a timestamp integer,
+    a :phpfunction:`strtotime` valid date string (e.g. ``+1 week``), a
+    ``DateTime`` object or an object which implements ``DateTimeInterface``.
+
+    The default value is ``0``, which deletes the cookie as soon as the browser
+    is closed.
+
+``$path``
+    **type**: ``string`` **default**: ``/``
+
+    The path on the server in which the cookie will be available on. The default
+    values makes the cookie available on any URL of the server.
+
+``$domain``
+    **type**: ``string`` **default**: ``null``
+
+    The domain that the cookie is available to. The default value makes the cookie
+    available just for the current domain (and any of its subdomains).
+
+``$secure``
+    **type**: ``bool`` **default**: ``false``
+
+    Whether the cookie should only be transmitted over a secure HTTPS connection
+    from the client.
+
+``$httpOnly``
+    **type**: ``bool`` **default**: ``true``
+
+    Whether the cookie will be made accessible only through the HTTP protocol
+    (which include both HTTP and HTTPS requests). If ``true``, the cookie won't
+    be accessible via non-HTTP methods, such as JavaScript's ``document.cookie``.
 
 You can clear a cookie via the
 :method:`Symfony\\Component\\HttpFoundation\\ResponseHeaderBag::clearCookie` method.
