One suggestion I haven't read yet, and works for me (when I have "tired taste buds") is an unflavored mix. ("unflavored" being simply PG + VG + nic = "unflavored")
I tried it once when I first started becoming obsessed with all things vaping and was thoroughly disappointed. More than a year later, my taste buds were fried, and even though I had three solid all-day-vapes in my rotation I could find no solace in any of them. I needed my nic fix; out of addiction, lack of inspiration, and pure laziness

, I whipped up another batch of unflavored. Though it still left me uninspired; I found it to be satisfying. It took the edge off to come up with "something." I was able to relax. I still remained uninspired.
I later came across a recipe that sounded interesting and mixed up a small 15mL tester. I poured off a 5mL tank and vaped it. It tasted WAY too strong but was interesting. I followed that tank up with another tank of unflavored and "WOW" this was pretty good (I was still getting some leaching from the flavored tank).
So, I poured off another 5mL of the original flavored recipe into a spare bottle, and cut it with 15mL of unflavored. I had 20 mL of heaven singing in my mouth!
I still vape primarily unflavored, but when I do want flavor,
I have a Dos Equis (sorry; wrong commercial
), I can vape at much lower flavor percentages.
Next time you don't know what you want to vape... try unflavored. I am not promising you the Holy Grail; but you may find a satisfying alternative that will hold you over until your taste buds strike.
Now I find that one tank of flavor, followed by two, three, or even four tanks of unflavored are perfectly satisfying. And I no longer have to find a flavor that is able to "dominate" the previous one.
Unflavored is fast, easy, cheap, and I can use it as a blending agent to quickly evaluate new flavors individually. It has found a permanent home in my DIY arsenal.
