FA Desert ship and Cowland tastes like...

[ChrisG]

Old lady flower perfume. I am new to the DIY thing, in fact this is my first try. I made 9 different flavors and all of them turned out as expected except these two. I steeped everything for 4 hours at 140 degrees then the next day tasted everything. All turned out but these 2. Since I have read multiple times to just shelf the stuff I have for 10 days open and airing. and there is literally no change. I thought after the heat and 10 days open I would be in pretty good shape but no.

I mixed DS at 2% and Cowland at 1.5% into a 50/50 blend with 6 nic.I am just wondering if anyone has any experience with these specific flavors from FA and how they turned out. It sucks because I was counting on DS as my daily as I have for years. I used to buy my DS from myfreedomsmokes for comparison and as a side note the color is way off. Not a light yellow but a light/medium orange on the DS, Cowland looks OK at a medium yellow.

I did try cutting a small batch in half and I couldn't tell a difference. Hoping someone with experience with these can chime in.

Thanks!

I'd say a bad batch. I see posts like this quite often. I'm not sure what happens but I think a lot of them are mix ups at the bottling machine.

It might be worth while to drop a friendly email to the vendor. Hopefully they'll take care of you.

I used FA DS for awhile a couple of years ago. It's always been medium orange in color. Its a very strong flavor. I vaped at 1%.

When you get perfume try cap off for 2-3 days then let it sit cap on for a week. I get this with tobaccos but I let them sit for at least a month before even bothering. I can't even stand freshly mixed TFA RY4 but some people love it so.

Made a batch similar to yours. 6mg, 50/50. I made it at 1% FA Desert Ship and it is good after about 3 weeks. I am still vaping the bottle made Jan 8 and it is dead on to a store bought bottle.

Thanks for the replies. Sounds like I may be a bit strong and a bit early. I guess what I am going to do is cut a batch down to 1% again and let it sit and see what happens.I hope something works because I have 240ml without cutting it and would hate to have that all go down the drain. May try some vape wizard in another batch to see what happens with that as well.
