Anyone else score smooth criminal from xpress? I got a 30ml.. you know you're jealous!

I really couldn't be happier, as I've heard countless times this is one of those mega-steepers. I had it before, and it made a poor first impression.. but I gave it up well before the two month mark. Interested to see what changes occur in further into the lifecycle.

Crap, does every order get a free sample? I've made like 4 orders and didn't know this if that is true. What size are they? Dang that sucks.

Has anyone tried the St Patty's Shamrock flavor? I've been wanting to try it since I saw it but it is never an option.. should I just give it up or is it something that shows up every once in a while?

I love this juice. I can't imagine ordering from anywhere else right now. I went through 30ml of Strawberry Bananna Cream in a week and I think it may have ruined all other juices for me for a while.

I am jealous. I'm nearly out of my 5-week 30ml bottle. I have a 60ml that's only about 3 weeks in. Guess I should take a shot at 30ml Xpress in the morning. Thanks for the heads up!

It's so true that taste is subjective. My experience was similar, however.

Cafe au Lait was peppery out of the mail for me (I wrote about it on here). It took about a month before the peppery taste and smell settled down and blended. I like rich dark roast coffee - espresso or Turkish, and this isn't really like that, but it's still pretty tasty.

Tiramisu smelled nice out of the mail, but had almost zero flavor for me. After a month the flavor is coming up, but still quite subtle. I haven't spent a lot of time with it for this reason. I'm still undecided on this one.

Lime Creme was a little strong in the beginning, and not very creamy. It only took a week, however, and it became a favorite. The lime settled down and there were more creamy notes.

So, 48 hours later and I have resampled my stash (because I am impatient and as curious as a cat). Every single juice has made a drastic change...all but one are basically vapable now. Amazing how these things develop. I'm still curious (and maybe a tiny bit dubious) about the science behind steeping. I'm a chili aficionado and make the baddest beer and venison chili on Earth, so I know how those flavors come together over a days rest, but this is so different. I digress...

The Cafe Au Lait has calmed down and I totally get the peppery taste you speak of. It sucks. However, it has made a marked change and hopefully with time it will be something like a good coffee.

The citrus bliss is totally vapable and enjoyable now. The harshness is waning, but not totally gone yet. The Tiramisu is also enjoyable and will hopefully continue to develop. Even the lime creme is settling down. I'm convinced it will be very good in the end.

You have to spend $20 and make a special request at check-out.

"Sample Policy

Samples will be available for purchase from our XPress line. Other non custom e-liquid orders including orders from our XPress line or hardware do NOT qualify for samples.

We make samples upon request and with qualifying custom e-liquid orders of $20 and up (pending availability and order load). Samples cannot be selected from our Premium tobacco line. Just like any other e-liquid of any size, we mix our samples at the time of order. This means that we do not have random samples to include with orders, so please be specific when requesting a sample. It's ok, go ahead and ask. Please include your sample request in the order comments box during checkout."


Crap, does every order get a free sample? I've made like 4 orders and didn't know this if that is true. What size are they? Dang that sucks.

Any order over $20 you just put a flav you'd like to try in comment box

I've been eyeing that st patty's too ,Been holding out on that one and have not seen any reviews

I would get it but there are so many must tries on the website that it keeps getting pushed to the back of the list

I've been enjoying my xpress line juices I picked up in store last week. I ordered these yesterday morning, and they arrived in my mail today. Talk about amazing service, especially considering they make them to order! Going to try some pre steep, and see how it goes. Had to get a 60mil bottle of SC....

I'm relatively new to vaping, but I've tried a lot of juices, and Ahlusion has been my favorite by a long shot....here is my current collection:

Is it a long steep?

Well....I think the steep thing is all personal preference really. I love it right out of the box and enjoy it as it matures thru the whole 60 ml bottle. I only vape 6mg, so it may be part of the reason I don't feel the need to steep some of the flavors other people seem to need to...not to mention everyone's different taste buds. ;)

For example, the Lime Cream....I love it fresh for its tart in your face Lime flavor & also enjoy it steeped when the creaminess becomes more pronounced.

I got my order yesterday, and I'm super disappointed. For the amount of hoops they force their customers to jump through just to spend money on the site, I was expecting something much better. The flavors themselves are fine, I guess, but the bases are sickeningly sweet and make me gag, even though I definitely said I wanted no sweetener. Also, I don't know if they stopped doing it or what, but I definitely didn't get a free sample even though I asked for one in the comments box as I was checking out. For the price and the ridiculous amount of work I had to do, I was expecting something at least on par with my current favorites. I feel like I wasted a ton of time and a decent chunk of money on a very mediocre product.

So if you're reading this and having trouble aligning your schedule with Ahlusion's schedule and wondering if it's worth it... it's not. It's really not. Save yourself the headache and order from a company that lets you give them your money outside of this ridiculous 1-2 hour window each day. They're not bad juices, they're just not worth anywhere near this level of trouble.

Sickeningly sweet is something I hate, and I've never had that reaction to anything from Ahlusion. Did you shake them thoroughly before use?

yep, I sure did. they're so sweet that it tastes like I'm getting juice in my mouth from the vapor. It's worse than just VG. I'm pretty sure they added something to all three juices even though I said not to.

I am curious, what flavors did you order? If you are willing to set them aside and come back to them in a week or two, chances are they will improve after they steep.

Agreed. If ordering from a vendor is causing someone frustration and feels like too much of a hassle; probably not going to be worth it for them. I've never attempted to order from a new vendor if I think it's going to be a lot of trouble. Why would I stress myself out for a vendor I may not even like?

What did you get? I may buy them off you.
