There were two vendors I patronized on my very first juice orders. One was MBV because I read so many raves about them here. The other was a new vendor running a super opening sale. Now I'm talking about purchases of the smallest sizes offered both places, the combined total of which was $250 with no duplicated flavors. Now that's more than a sample test of each considering MBV regular prices and a super sale (20% off) at the other vendor. The greatest quantity came from MBV as the other vendor had much fewer choices. With the exception of one single flavor from MBV, all of them were unvapable and remain so to this day. All, except the one, had the exact same off-putting taste of perfume. There were a few exceptions but most were without extra flavor shots. Frankly, whenever I read that someone tastes that same thing in their juices that I do, I'm relieved. Its very disconcerting to read so many raves about somthing that tastes so disgusting to me. And I DO mean disgusting. That taste almost kept me from vaping and "taste is subjective" sure didn't help matters. Thankfully, someone talked me into giving it one more try and I found juice that kept me vaping. BUT, I learned a valuable lesson: Buy not only small sizes but only a few selections and read the reviews at the vendor site itself. You begin to learn, there, what the odds are for a good or a really bad juice. Vaping can be less expensive than smoking but not if you throw money away on unvapable juices and have to duplicate expenses finding at least decent ones.
Disclaimer: Obviously not everyone tastes the really overwhelming, to me, perfume taste in MBV juices and my apologies to them for telling the truth of my own experience. As I said, one did not have that taste and it is Graham Cracker but it turns black which is normal but puts me off. I also buy straight menthol flavoring there and its fine.
