I'm at a loss !!

I have been vaping since 2007, and have always made my own e-liquids. These are based from tobacco turkish blend, and a few flavors such as mint, lime, ginger etc.
I started vaping in 2007 using those old style 801 atomizers. Since these became scarce, I am now using a tank called Vivi Nova with small screw in wick atomizers.
SO FAR SO GOOD.

The other day I received an new tank called the manito, with an atomizer with no wick. I think it's called a bottom coil.
All the (same) liquids with this new atomizer taste of perfume, and they taste 10000 times more pungent.

It's easy to taste a liquid precisely. I simply put a drop on my hand and allow the 10'000 taste buds in my mouth to determine the exact taste and flavor intensity.
Through the years, I have always made my e-liquids more intense because I have always believed that vaping with an atomizer diminishes the flavor intensity as opposed to increasing it.
Now I am faced with these new atomizers that CHANGE the original taste completely, and make everything taste like perfume.
Any ideas?

Thanks
Quo

Ya know, I think you might do better with a carto tank, or a dripping atomizer. Or for vaping at home, why not pick up a few 510 attys and just drip? That seems to be an old school way to do it that many folks enjoy...especially ones that have been in the vaping game for a long time.

I'm sure there are other, more experienced vapers that will be able to point you in the right direction.

I have found that when a perfume taste shows up, it is because my flavor percentage is too high. Get an unflavored nic in your nic percentage and cut it in half. That way you aren't changing the %. Your new setup is gettting better air and burning through more juice, so the flavor is off.

As you discovered, different coils will produce varying levels of flavor!

Some produce muted flavor and others make it pop...you may just need to downmix your flavors.

Yep, bottom coils deliver way more flavor.

My Vivi Novas went into storage months ago

Kanger PT2 or Anyvape Davide

Both are glass so you can vape any flavor without worry.

thanks guys,
I will dilute the flavor with VG and PG, and go from there.
All your responses were very useful...
