nic shots are 70/30? Or flavours? Or your VG/PG mix? If you post the recipe, with flavours, nic, PG/VG and calculations, I can take a look. There are certain flavours that are more perfumy than others of course, but sounds like you either need to steep for longer or something is wrong in the mix. I had lemon tart recipes that tasted like that, but after 3 weeks of steeping are just fine. I don't use nicotine though,
they are 70vg 30 pg shortfills so you just need to add nicotine to them probobly just need to steep but from what i have heard most shortfills can be smoked right away its just the cherry sorbet and one with watermelon from the same company thats like that the watermelon is way better tho
