You probably won't find anything that will taste like an analog. The main reason: with an analog, you're burning stuff to get the flavor and with an e-cig, you're turning water into "steam". 2 different chemical reactions that are going to produce 2 different flavors. The only thing I could think of that might come close, is to get a bottle of tobacco flavored e-juice, open it up and set it near an open wood fire for a couple of hours. I dunno, never tried it.....

+1 GIMike. Nothing is burned in vaping, so there won't be any smoke taste. The best you'll get is raw, fresh open pack smell. For Marl Red, you can try Dekang Red USA Mix (sort of stinky tobacco in a good way) or FSUSA Max/Boro (quite peppery). Both are supposed to be Marlboro taste-a-likes. There are many more imitating that flavor.

all i know is i used to smoke Marlboro Lights. i started vaping a couple of months ago. i mostly vape VR Kentucky Premiums and will switch off to some Dekang or various fruit flavors to mix things up, but it's mostly Vermillion. after 2 weeks i decided to try one of the Marlboro Lights just to see how it tasted. it was friggin' horrible - exactly like i think licking an ashtray would taste. i flashed back to when i stole one of my maids cigarettes when i was a little kid and lit up in the bathroom and gagged. it tasted like that memory. i wondered then why in the world people smoked and i wonder now why i did. don't get me wrong, i was the same way before i started. i researched forever trying to find a review of some juice that tasted like an analog. never did. now that i vape, there's no need for that research. YMMV.

If you get a small bottle of tobacco absolute diluted (with alcohol) from the perfumers apprentice, you can try adding just a couple of drops per 10ml of eliquid to give it a "firmer" taste. It comes in a little glass bottle with an eyedropper. 2 - 3 drops max per 10 ml, then shake the bottle of liquid and give it a try.
The stuff really is potent. Make sure it is the diluted version -- the undiluted is too thick for this kind of minor tweaking.

This guy makes some pretty epic tobacco flavors. So it's probably a good idea to take his advice.
