I am using lemon Sicily flavor art. I love it. But it tends to fade. I need a good lemon that doesn't fade. Also lime cold press is awesome but it also fades a bit. I am using both now. But need to order some more lemon

I use the TFA Lemon that's called "Lemon (Water Sol.)", because it's the Lemon that's water soluable. I've been using it for about a year and a half to make a Lemon Meringue Pie recipe by Bill's Magic Vapor. Have never had the lemon flavor fade in it yet!
I still haven't found the "best" answer for that yet myself. Not counting bakery, beverage, or candy type lemons, I have 5 lemon-only concentrates in my current stash; Italian Lemon Sicily-CAP, Juicy Lemon-CAP, Lemon-INW, Lemon-TFA, and Lemon Sicily-FA, and I am playing with the combining of 2, or 3, of them which does seem to add some longevity to the mix. I am still far from being able to offer any opinion regarding what percentages, of which pair/trio might be best; but depending on what you have in your own inventory, you might want to experiment along similar lines.
I have found most lemons will fade, Two that stand up to fading the best for me are FE Lemon (Flavor Express) from ecigexpress, and MF Lemon. I found it also helps to add the lemons after the rest of the base has steeped, and never make large batches that will sit for more than a month.
Yeah I have wanted to try flavor express lemon. They say it is really strong. I only make 5 ml batches of my lemon cookie
