Does flavor drop off with warmer temperatures?

So I noticed the flavors in my juice has started to taste more mild lately, and I think its due to some sun exposure and warmer temperature. I mean its still pretty cold as high points are about 45 degrees here in north Jersey but I cant think of any other reason. I smoke mostly the same flavor and noticed my juice has turned pretty brown even at just 3mg nicotine. Throughout the winter the flavor in some of the juices I vape has been really on point since Im in my car a lot and its been like avg. of 20 outside. I used to put my juices in the fridge but that only works for so long and was hoping there might be another method that maybe someone knows about. Something about lukewarm e-juice, it seems to lose its crispness or maybe its just me. Idk...:confused:

For me it has been the exact opposite unfortunately :( ... When I'm outside on break at work I can't taste most of my juices at all and it's been really disappointing because when I'm inside at home in the warmth everything tastes great. I can't wait for the warmer weather up here when I'll be able to go outside and enjoy vaping.

I have no personal experience with this but I have heard that prolonged exposure to sunlight can mute the flavor of some juices and would definitely explain the darkening of the juice.

I'm still new here, but maybe with the warmer temps, your setup (mod + atomizer) is running warmer? That would explain the darker color (I had this happen and asked about it here) and, possibly, the change in taste? Depending on your mod, maybe try dialing down the power or voltage or using a higher resistance coil?
Well actually its the juice thats in the bottle thats getting darker, what was once a light yellow is now a full on brown.

I was going through the same thing when the temperature dipped to 0 or below but something with Menthol helps. My ADV is a menthol mixed with a couple other flavors but when it's that cold it's hard to make out the other flavors.

I'm in CA, so I don't have the cold that you guys suffer. I keep all my extra juice in a cool, dark and dry closet.

As the flavors meld with the nic, there is noticeable color change every few days weeks. Most actually get better with time.

With that said, juice is light and heat sensitive. The color will change by that alone.
