Yes, and whatever you've been eating changes everything. I've noticed that fruit and fruit juices makes my vape taste very good (pineapple, apple, pear, cran-apple juice, etc.), while peanut butter, gravy, anything oily makes it taste awful, and anything spicy makes it taste like the spice on the back of my tongue.
Yep. And sugary or salty foods, and alcohol.

I still say that all they need is a Taryn spin! I think the flavors separate. It has always worked for me. The blueberry I got as a sample was that way and I did the spin..no problem.
I'll give that a try.

Found it while you were typing, thanks! :D

I get the same thing dripping into an 801, though, so that's not it.

SO maybe you need to spin the bottle? Just guessing here. ;)

Interesting... could be why sometimes I notice that the flavor of a new carto seems to change during the course of a vaping 'session.'

I'm getting a good chuckle reading this thread, I received my V4L order (placed Tuesday afternoon!) today, and couldn't wait to try out the cappuccino, having read so many people rave about how good it is. I opened a carto up, popped it on the battery, and BOOM! Perfume bomb.

Actually at first I thought it had somehow got mixed up with French Pipe, as I got one of those in my sampler pack last week and it was the first flavor I've found that I actually disliked; this tastes very similar.

I dripped a couple drops from the 5ml bottle I got on my 510 atty, same taste. This makes me think it is just me! I can smell it from carto's and the bottle without vaping it.

After reading this thread, I'm not sure whether to chalk it up to my noobiness, call it a bad batch, or maybe I just don't like it. Guess I'll sit on it for a bit....

The 555 on the other hand is delicious! I should have ordered some in lower nic because I can't put it down!

I've only been off analogs for 5 days so I'm sure my taste buds are proable going to change along the way. But I've found my taste changes during the day. Mornings I want cherry or hilton. Later in the day its 555 even later I go with the cowboy which seems the harshest to me. During the day I like to vape menthol too. In that its a lot different then analogs. With analogs I hated changing brands. Of course with analogs I never really tasted or smelled anything very well

I do like it! It took a few days and several times taking a few puffs and putting it away but I'm kind of digging it now. Just wasn't what I expected initially but it is good.

There are probably only a handful of flavors I have loved from the first taste. I find most of them, need a little while to grow on you.

I got red hots and mtn do that tasted very perfumy...I mean it almost tastes like vaping soap. I am very disappointed with those two flavors and I hope it is just a bad run.


I havent tried the red hots yet but i did get some mountdo in 18mg and im pretty happy with it.
no perfume issues on my end

Red hots have gotten a universal thumbs down from the folks I have tried to pawn them off on. One of my friends called it 'red hot ....'. Never having tried that before I cannot comment on it but I decided to just wash them out rather then possibly remind someone of a former addiction.

Last night we went back and try a bunch that were ordered last month and were not thrilled with. I have discovered I can now taste the chocolate and dark chocolate! Very pleased.
