Rasputin is one of my favorites from Ahlusion so far. I don't taste much cheesecake flavor but it's a raspy-raspberry with interesting but unidentifiable undertones. It is a little delicate. I don't like to put too much in a tank at once because it seem susceptible to overheating.

I haven't tried Car-Mal Mambo but I'm planning to order it. I really liked Gold Member which they described as:
Just as good as our Car-Mal Mambo, but with a salted twist. Satisfy your craving for genuine Ahlusion Caramel goodness!
My own notes on Gold Member were "really good. Caramel, slightly smoky (not tobcco-y.)" If I tasted tobacco, I would have tossed it. As Gold Member isn't offered any longer, the "salt-free" version seems like the way to go.

He, he, he
Searched for Gold Member on the Ahlusion site and there were no matches. It also told me that there were no matches for my search for "cold matter" but I did get 5 hits on "matter" alone (all Boba Teas.)

Looking for some feedback. Which one is the best between these two: Sweet Cherry Something or Contrary Cherry. Also any comments you have for:

Rasputin
Alton – what are the citrus flavors in Alton?
Car-Mal Mambo and
Cristp Melon
Sublime

Thanks.

I liked Rasputin and didn't taste the awful sour milk of butyric acid like Chanel did, but I think it could be more exciting. Alton, on the other hand, I think tastes like cardboard and hot dogs. I know, that doesn't sound appealing, and it wasn't. I think Yin Yang was the very, very best orange cream that Ahlusion made, but it's gone now. I'm vaping some of my hoarded stash now, and it's great. Sorry. :cry: I will likely shed a tear when it's gone. I got a sample of Orange Cream (or Dream, or whatever they call it) and it was far more Alton-like than Ying Yang-like. That's not good. I have some old, old Car-Mal Mambo, and the flavor is very good, but it's a coil-gunker. I had some later Gold Member, and it had that butyric acid taste that is so awful to me. I don't know if that's what it is that some of us are tasting in different things, but I do know that I got Gold Member many moons ago, and it didn't have that taste. I'm pretty sure it was reformulated, but I don't know if Car-Mal Mambo was also reformulated. I don't know about Crisp Melon or Sublime, but when I ordered both Sweet Cherry Something and Contrary Cherry (a while back, now), they were both nice, but far too mild on the cherry for me. Hope this is helpful.

A buddy of mine.. that's not me in the pic.
He picked it up at his local B&M. Said it was BOMB!
Posted so LLB would know all is well with me. I'm actually surprised he didn't catch that name....Illusions.
:lol:

DOH! I was on my phone. Pics are so hard to see on the dumb things. But I AM super glad to hear all is well with you! I hope you get moved easily. I know THAT is a job. I've avoided it for 22 years running now...

Sweet Cherry Something, as I recall, is a subtle, milky flavor. I went on a cherry chasing binge a good while ago, and found them all lacking, but then, that was pre-Kayfun. Didn't care for Alton. Car-Mal Mambo is a wonderfully rich caramel, but be prepared to change wicks and clean coils frequently- it's thick!

I have a sneaking suspicion that Wlad is dumping stock. Flavors mostly. He's not stupid and stays up on the Deeming Regs.
When most juice companies are still in it for the bucks. Wlad is helping us out a lot with all these sales.
I will continue to buy Ahl . Thankfully I love their tobaccos. Well all but the Aromatics

Ahlusion... A fresh new taste?
I am about to go, where no man has gone before....
It still LOOKS the same as ever.

Been pretty long since I've done 50PG, much longer since I've done 24mg. It still tastes EXACTLY as I remember it. And it is STRONG. Pink Label ALWAYS made me cough, and today is no exception. Amazing though, no noticeable degradation. The nic hasn't browned...

I wish he would offer flavor concentrates for sale, like Decadent Vapours has been doing forever. I have a feeling that non-nicotine products will be allowed in the end--there's absolutely no justification for banning flavorings. No court will allow it, no matter what the FDA defines as "intended use." There's just no way.

Would you prefer flowers or donations to your favorite charity in your memory?

Please make checks payable to CASAA...

Seriously, it looks, smells, tastes directly on tongue, and via vape, as I have always known Pink Label to be. This has NOT been in my wine cellar, it has been on a shelf in a dark closet of an upstairs bedroom in Iowa. It is probably 55F in there when I am not here in the winter, 70ish when I am here summer or winter, and probably gets as warm as 85F in the summer when I'm in Michigan.

So, Dark (UV) seems to be far more important than cold or oxygen. Also, if this were Lime Cream or one of THOSE, it would likely be very brown. Flavor seems to also play a big role in "change".

If worse comes to worst, that would probably be a fairly easy switch to make. It would also be nice for the people who found a flavor they like but find it too light. They could just boost the flavor. And it probably has a long shelf life when the nicotine hasn't been added.

I have to place an order. I wanted to vape through more of my backlog (including some flavors I haven't tried yet) but I've been out of Rasputin for a while and, as of tomorrow, the last of the Autumn Mist will be gone. That can not be allowed. Rasputin is the best and, while AM is no Pearadise Dream (RIP), it is a nice, clean palate cleanser.

I'll add some Car-Mal Mambo to see how it stacks up against Gold Member and Sapphire (which has to compete with BVC and Stardust Breeze for the position of top blueberry in my collection.)

When I first started buying juice from Ahlusion, I only ordered tobacco flavors- mainly the old aromatics. Then... I ventured into the Wild Wood line. I never saw the value in vaping fruit flavors, because vaping-at the time, was a replacement for cigarettes. Now... years later, vaping is no longer a replacement for cigarettes, rather... It's become a journey of its own. A few years ago I began experimenting with Ahl fruits- first lemon creme, then Autumn Mist, now... I'm hooked on many of Wlads fruit flavors. I just ordered a bunch of brand new (to me) flavors. Blueberry, sweet strawberry, and Hawaiian Sun. I ordered Dew Drop (with Breeze) for the first time and this juice is amazing! Today I now longer crave Wlads tobacco flavors as I once did. I feel Ahl tobacco formulas have been "cleaned up" in preparation for new FDA regs. I think today's Ahl tobaccos don't hold a candle to what they once were, but Ahl is knocking fruit flavors out of the park!

I got Oasis as my sample. Any opinions on it?
yes, very good. The grapefruit is just right, not too much but just enough. I sort of always wished it was more flavorful but others seem to think it is flavorful enough. Long steeper (IMO)

Shoot. I assumed "citrus" was lemon or lime. I hate grapefruit. Oh well, it's only a sample size. :)
